Theismann must be really slipping!

ncskinsfanec · 03-28-2007, 12:12 AM

Did you see the article on ESPN.com where Theismann ranked the top five organizations in the NFL? For some reason he put the Cowboys at number 3, no wonder ESPN told him to take a hike from MNF!

ESPN.com - NFL - Theismann: Best organizations in the NFL?

That is just so stupid. Right, the Cowboys, who haven't won a playoff game in what, 10 years, are better run than the Baltimore Ravens and the Colts who just won the superbowl?! I remember the year before last, sometime during our playoff run he wrote an article on ESPN saying how the one two punch of Patten and Moss would help us in the playoffs. Problem was, Patten hadn't been active since halfway through the season. How could you not know that? You should at least know the Redskins.

Why would the skins be in anybody's top 5? I dont think they are in anybody's top 20. Vegas has them at 40-1 to win it all this season.

Hey, I'll be in Vegas this weekend (leaving tomorrow). You can bet I will lay down $50 at 40-1 odds for my Skins!

I met him when I was 6 years old. He was signing autographs at some store. Woodward and Lothrop's I think. I have a framed personalized autograph of him and Mark Moseley. Honestly at the time I really had no clue who he was. I just wanted to be cool like my older brother and his friends so I threw a tantrum until he agreed to take me along with him

I always liked Joe the player since Notre Dame.

I'm not that fond of him as an analyst. However, he could surely help FOX or CBS. I think he could fill Brian Baldinger's shoes.

Yeah, I could see him leaving ESPN/ABC for CBS or FOX; lord knows FOX needs serious help with their broadcast teams.

I don't see him doing college games, unless he's contractually obligated to ESPN -- which could be the case.

I guess it all depends on where Theismann's 'heart' is -- in the booth commenting on the games, or in the studio for pre and post-game.

With the bozos FOX has, you'd think they'd jump all over Theismann if he were to walk.

BDBohnzie · 03-28-2007, 08:22 AM

Yeah, ESPN is pushing real hard to get Joey T out the door...

THEISMANN OFFERED JOB AS COLLEGE ANALYST: Joe Theismann, dropped as an analyst on Monday Night Football, says he's been offered a job doing college football for the ESPN/ABC networks.

''I've been an NFL guy since 1974, so for 33 years now that's been my life,” Theismann said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press. ''Now you are faced with the prospect of that not being in your future. It would be like training to be a doctor or a lawyer and having them say, 'we would like you to change to another profession.' I need some time to think about it.”

Poor Joe, I feel for him. Kornheiser & Wilbon both had good things to say about him on pti yesterday. Joe runs his mouth at a fast rate, but he brought us some great times, one of the most underated 2 minute qb's of all time IMO.

I always liked Joe. And thanks for helping get us that beautiful RING!

Can't honestly blame him for bumpimg his old team outta the top 5 after last season can ya?

We'll just HAVE TO PROVE HIM WRONG, THAT'S ALL!

I know the we're not a top five organization right now, too many front office blunders and inconsistency year to year, but my real qualm was Joey T putting the Cowboys at number three. Someone saying that about a team who hasn't won a playoff game in ten years makes me shake my head, and especially having it come from one of our greatest and most revered player's!
