Pretty much explains the lack of people skills you always hear about with him. What a douche.

Yup--he was on a little after 8 a.m. Did no one else hear it?

They'll probably have the audio of the interview on ESPN's Mike & Mike page later this afternoon.

there could be some value to Cerrato's comments.....if you just listen to what he says and do the oposite

Yeah, if he was such a success, he'd still be here and we'd be defending champs.

Yes, he had a few great picks, but it was boom of bust for him...and his busts FAR outnumbered his successes.

I heard this also, and was very annoyed that Vinny puts all the blame on our QB play. Vinny talked Snyder out of Gregg Williams as HC, then championed Zorn's promotion from OC to HC. I've also heard that he pushed hard for the Archuleta signing, perhaps the most disastrous FA move of the Snyder era. The biggest reason Vinny is at ESPN is that he wasn't very good at his job here - it's time he looked at the man in the mirror.

Lets see Vinny survive one play behind that line he "built".

God, I can't believe I supported that moron. Guy learned nothing from Gibbs about being humble and accepting the blame, even when people know it's clearly not your fault. In fact it seemed like earlier in his career as a Head Coach that Zorn learned to play the public blame game with 'execution' as his favorite buzz word for passing blame.

Does he have a medical condition that explains why he looks like that?

How in Hell does Cerrato have any job at this point, much less one where you would expect a proven legitimate expert. Espn is Wacked! How long before Vinny self implodes, and blows this gig?

They need to look for more guys like Floyd Reese. GM's with a proven track record. Millen you could argue was at least a good player. Cerrato convinced kids to come to the best college football program in the country, which is really difficult.

That is funny I was going to say the same exact thing. That is like being a Basketball recruiter at Duke or Kentucky....fishing in a barrel.
What was Dan thinking when he hired Ceratto...twice?

Looks like Bell's Palsy. Serious. My father-in-law had it for a short period. It can be caused by a head trauma. (serious)
