well played
On a serious note, I like reading stories like that about players and where they're coming from and how their rooting alliances turn out. Like how Orakpo hates Dallas because he's from Houston, and the one on the 'Skins blog about how Chris Wilson is rooting for Mark Ingram to get the Heisman because they're both from Flint Michigan.

Hmm, interesting comment. Not sure who you were refering to? Since the title is about Marty I guess that is who you were talking about. I'm also not sure why the comment was made cause there is no basis for the comment unless you would care to share.
Now if your refering to Cerrato then I whole heartedly agree. The man can't get his head up Snyder's ass far enough.
On another note....I think the title is a bad title. Marty does not slap Snyder he simply tells what happened when he was with the Skins and it's basically all about Cerrato being the little biotch that he is.
come on of course I mean Snyderrato...Marty, was the only one with the cajones to demand more control as a HC should and he was booted because of it. Snyderrato is a first class ass sniffer because they don't realize how close we are to becoming like the raiders, a failed organization whose owner doesn't know when to keep his hands off.

Record wise, I was referring to overall, which gibbs was not over 500. The two years were great we made the playoffs, but both years took unbelievable runs (5 straight, then 4 straight) to make it. Gibbs was a different coach 2nd time around and many argue (me) that while gibbs was more CEO of the team, these guys rallied behind Greg Williams and the championship caliber defense he put on the field week in and week out. I am not bashing gibbs so everyone dont get your panties in a bunch, and I loved him here. He brought back the family atmosphere, some accountablity, and left with the assumption that Williams was the guy in waiting, but we all know how that worked out.
Listen to this little tid bit, Norv Turner is about to be the all time winningest coach in SD Charger history. So two HUGE mistaked, again my opinion, was getting rid of Norv, then getting rid of Marty and rehiring Vinny.
Snyder makes atrocious coaching/personnel decisions...that's all you have to say. There isn't an honest argument to the contrary, just a bunch of bs and fluff. What you said about the team rallying behind Williams is totally true too, but again you have a guy that would sort of overshadow Lil D and he won't go along. If you notice Gibbs in his 2nd tenure always deferred to the tiny man in the owner's box. Williams is a different kind of cat and Snyder could never have handled it.
Personally I think Snyder needs to think of himself as the team leader, that is why he cannot stand coaches w/ strong personalities and continues to keep a little toady for a GM. If you honestly look at his 10 year history of failure Snyder has never been able to work w/ strong personalities...his last choice, Zorn, is maybe the most demure personality I've ever seen in professional sports. I like Zorn, but he is no HC.

I guess I misunderstood you. When I hear ass sniffer I thought of someone who sucks up. Obviously Cerrato does that. I couldn't figure out how Snyder was sucking up. Your just refering to him putting his nose where it doesn't belong.

You know what's interesting is that Cerrato's top lieutenant, the guy who does the majority of the work in the off-season is Scott Campbell who is a Schottenheimer disciple.
That's a point a lot of us keep trying to make. There's been an idea frequently posted on the warpath that Cerrato's job is in jeopardy, but there's always been little-to-no support of that statement. That Cerrato could get axed at the end of this year is really nothing more than a sentiment.
I've never been so happy to have been so wrong.
