Dr. Z on Gibbs

Well I think we all agree that these comments are both ignorant and absurd. Especially the notion that Snyder pushed Lewis out the door. Lewis, as Crisp said, was long overdue for a coaching opportunity and he got it. What was Dr. Z hoping for? That Lewis would get a head coaching job and Snyder wouldn't let him go?

Does this b*tch have an e-mail? I'm sick of his crap. I can't even read my SI anymore because of this crack head. He just pisses me off. I feel like going on a Winslow rant minus the "soldier" statement after reading this.

I'm sorry but if Gibbs wants to find a job for his son he'd have no problem. Hell, all he has to do is tell one of the coaches in the language to hire him and they’d do it….it would be smart thing to do. You gets Gibbs’ son on your staff and you could potential have access to Gibbs' himself.

Put simply, Dr. Z is an idiot and one of the reasons why SI is dying.

And the rest of that article was filled with nonesense about cheescake and brunches. What the F*** are they paying him for? I coulda written a better article here in Brooklyn. Sportscurm.'s reports about the owners meeting are a thousand times better.

Exactly, I mean Gibbs could have just stayed on as part-owner with the Falcons and had his son added to that staff

Z is one of the reasons I cancelled my SI subscription a long time ago.

I didn't even read the article but I know people will make these sorts of judgments and wisecracks about the Redskins until the team turns it around on the field. When you're winning, any sort of dysfunction tends to get winked at by the media ... when you're losing or mediocre, it's the only thing to talk about. Lucky for us, this ship is turning around and the clowns who pass themselves off as experts will have to find some other shit to stir. Snyder will always receive his pot shots and you never know, Gibbs may too before this is over, but winning breeds respect and we finally have a coach who knows how to win. We've seen the way he builds a team ... next comes winning a bunch of games ... and then we'll start seeing articles about the Bandwagon and such things.

I'm pretty sure on one of Gibb's first interviews with George Michael he said the reason he came back was for Coy. He said he liked to coach, but his primary reason for coming back was his son.

So what if Gibbs coming back is because of his son? Yes, Gibbs could have gotten his son a job on a coaching staff somewhere, but wasn't one of the reasons Gibbs left was to be able to spend more time with his family?

Did this idea ever cross Dr. Z's mind? Gibbs thinking, "Why let some other coaching staff show my son the ropes when I can show him how it is done!!"

:stop: Dammit, Daseal, you just had to go and throw a wrench in our anti-SI rant, didn't you?! Man, now I have to find another argument for why Dr. Zzzzzz' s a jackass. Thanks a lot, Daseal!:cheeky-sm

No, seriously, I know Gibbs has said numerous times that Coy was a big reason for him wanting to come back, but I tend to think that Coy may have been the spark that simply re-ignited the fire, so to speak. Whenever I hear him talk about Coy telling him he wanted to try coaching, it sounds to me as if it was the turning point where Gibbs began to think, "Hey maybe that's not such a bad idea after all." His sons were a big reason why he quit coaching to begin with, feeling that it took too much time away from his family. Now that Coy's all grown up, and has expressed his own desire to coach, maybe Joe thought, "Hey, this would be a great way to spend some more time with my son, while doing what I love to do anyway, right?"

So while Coy may have been a major catalyst for Gibbs' change of heart, I find it extremely difficult to believe that Coy is the primary fuel that drives him on a daily basis. We all know what drives Gibbs, and that is the desire to be the best at what he does. The guy may talk like a saint, but his competitive fire burns hotter than hell.
