Problem with Wallpapers.
Dear Summo,
I request a lovely Spurrier wallpaper please. Maybe the ol' ball coach with his arms up in the air for a TD! I'd love that! |

Daseal, I'm buzzing tonight too but the joke is over my man, I know that you really despise Spurrier deep down, you told me so when we met at camp. I can't keep it a secret any longer.

WHAT! I think not! That's blasphemy! (because Spurrier is GOD!)
Nah, I'll always be a Spurrier fan. However, I know that the players and fans had given up on him here. Spurrier is a bright man, he'll learn from his mistakes and be successfull somewhere else. He figured NFL players were mature enough to handle responsibility on their own. WRONG! |

Give me a call when you own a football team. Then that will matter!

So was I. Spurrier is more of a coach than anyone here could hope to be, not to mention was less than 10 spots behind Gibbs in ESPN's poll for the best coaches of this decade.
He made mistakes, I'll admit that. But he did better than both Bellicheck and Jimmy Johnson in his first two years, and his offense showed flashes of brilliance. He didn't set the blocking schemes, mr Helton did. |

First off, I commend you for staying true to Spurrier. However, there are a couple of flaws, for lack of a better word, with what you've written here Nobody here is claiming to be a great coach, at least I don't think so. So to compare our coaching skills to Spurrier's seems a bit out of order. Spurrier is far and away a better coach that I am-Although I did lead a team of 5th and 6th graders to back-to-back hockey titles.  - but it isn't about is Spurrier better than I am as a coach, it's about him in comparison to other coaches in the NFL.Gibbs hasn't coached an official game in 12 years so to say that Spurrier finished less than 10 spots behind Gibbs in a poll of best coaches of this past decade is no great feat. I'm thinking though that you were talking about ESPN's best 25 coaches of the past 25 years. As That Guy points out, JJ and Belichick made improvements from year 1 to year 2. Granted you can't get much worse than 1-15. Spurrier seemed to regress. Now maybe the problem was that we weren't as good as the 8-8 record we had his first year here so when we dropped to 5-11 the next year it looked worse than it might have been. Certainly Spurrier could one day be a successful NFL coach. He's an outside the box thinker and that could be just what the NFL needs. Problem is does he want to be? Seems right now like there are some, some like Daseal, want him to be more than he himself does.

but instead of fixing what was wrong, he chose to continue making the same mistake... that's something bellicheck and johnson did right, they learned from their mistakes... he just threw his hands up and hoped everything would fix itself...
