2008 Point & Laugh at the skins thread

[Munson]

Besides, you know Kevin Curtis, Wes Welker, Tim Dwight, and...all those other "fast" or "quick" white dudes get together for dinner every year.

lol @ thinking for six minutes after your first post to try and come up with something that you thought would be funny and instead coming up terribly short once again...youre pathetic

lol @ being one of the overweight white people who thinks he's black.


Pathetic.

But actually that 6 minutes was spent trying to find other fast white people in the NFL and not being able to actually come up with any other then those 3.
Poor white people.

At leas there's Reed Doughty!

Per Schefter the Skins offered Pete Carroll the HC job but Carroll turned them down.

They're bringing in Colts defensive Coordinator (Ron Meeks I think) for a 2nd interview. 

This is getting better by the day.  The only way it would be better is if Al Davis owned the Skins.

fassel is the next coach...he gave to go ahead on hiring zorn...the rest of these interviews are just window dressing imo and jim fassel will be the next coach of the washington taterskins

[Sgt PSN]

Window dressing for what?  If they've settled on Fassell then why not announce it?  Why interview more guys for a job you've already filled?  Is Snyder seriously that farging retarded? 

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

2nd to Sarge.

It makes no sense, even for a borderline retarded person.

[Cerevant]

Have they interviewed a minority candidate yet?

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Holla @ Ron Meeks:

[Sgt PSN]

The Colts D-coordinator that they're bringing in for a 2nd interview is black.  So yes, they have.  

[ice grillin you]

rooney rule and lil danni loves this whole process...hes a ego maniac and interrogating belittling and turning down people for jobs is something that builds him up

fassel is the next coach

[Feva]

Well, that answers that.

I just love the fact that they interviewed this guy 4 farging times for a promotion and then they just decided "farg it! You're fired."

NFL Network analyst Steve Mariucci could reportedly meet with the taterskins regarding their head coaching vacancy by as early as Wednesday.

Colts defensive coordinator Ron Meeks is in for a second interview Tuesday, but it would be a surprise if a defensive mind got the job. Mariucci and Jim Fassel appear to be the current frontrunners to succeed retired Joe Gibbs.

The Cerrato Era

Vinny Cerrato has been a part of the taterskins organization since Daniel Snyder took over - save for 2001, when Marty Schottenheimer fired him - and in that time become the subject of great conjecture. With a free-flowing and ever-changing coterie of coaches and scouts, and frequently changing titles, Cerrato's public responsibilities have been largely undefined, though his loyalty to Snyder and their bond are no secret around the league.

But now, with his recent promotion to executive vice president/football operations last week Cerrato is without question the top decision maker in the organization. That's how his peers see him. The taterskins - save for actually using the GM title - have handed Cerrato the position. Given Snyder' well-known deep involvement with the franchise's moves, there's no more need to wonder who is responsible.

The Cerrato Era has begun. This coaching search is his first major maneuver. The team has gone to great lengths to describe how involved he is with his decision - and the traces to Cerrato are unmistakable throughout - so judge not the past, my friends. The days of figures lurking in the shadows and no one but a head coach being responsible for speaking publicly about everything and anything are over.

You need look in only one direction now for personnel and the draft.
If it's a trade, signing, draft pick, it's on Vinny now. There's no team president and Hall of Fame Coach above him on the flow chart. The days of taterskins' management spreading word that a particularly poor acquisition was really the fault of a scout or assistant coach, well, that's not going to fly anymore. He will be assessed and graded in real time, and for posterity. Whether Snyder is pulling all the strings is irrelevant, because the league will be grading Cerrato's personnel record starting with this coaching hire.

"Vinny's running it," said one longtime NFL executive who has studied the taterskins closely. "Vinny is the GM. This is the first time you can really put everything on Vinny, beginning right now. And his first act as chief of operations is to find a new coach and he's hired coordinators first and basically has his staff in place already. That's a completely outside-the-box way of doing business, and we'll find out of it was right or wrong.

"It's evident to every football man in the National Football League that the Vinny Cerrato era has begun. Whether it works or not - and a lot of people are wondering if it can work - right now you can honestly say he's in charge. In the past he's always been under the radar, and he could blame Dan or blame a coach, but he can no longer do that. It's his team now."

And the rest of the NFC East rejoiced.

Cerrato is probably better if Snyder stays out of it, but still... good stuff.
