COACHES CONSUMING COGNAC

Recent games in the NFL have shown some coaching decisions that make me believe coaches are high on something, otherwise how do you explain the major lapse in judgement by a number of coaches. Exhibit A: Steeler coach, Mike Tomlin, with his team taking the lead by 2 and about four minutes to go, decides to go for an onside kick instead of going deep and letting his defense do their job. The onside kick was unsuccessful and Green Bay uses a short field to score a TD and go ahead. Lucky for Mike and the special teams coach, the Steeler Offense drives the length of the field to score on the final play of the game. Asinine call by the coach is overcome by the offense, or major repercussions would probably have taken place in Pittsburgh after the way the Steelers have slumped lately. Not so fortunate is Exhibit B, Jim Zorn, Washington Redskins head coach, at least for now. Early during last night's game, Washington was deep in Giant territory in an obvious field goal situation. The Redskins lined up in a run and shoot formation where the center is by himself and the majority of the team is spread out to the left, and the QB is 6 yards behind centre. The Giants not expecting this, call a headsy time out to neutralize the surprise. Now since the Giants call the time out and prepare for this play, it makes perfect sense for Washington to forget the surprise play and just kick the field goal. Nope!!! Zorn goes ahead with the surprise play, which is no longer a surprise play, and gets an interception as his reward. A terrible call, by a terrible coach on a terrible team. Nice knowing u Jim, you won't be coaching in Washington next year, maybe Pop Warner teams are searching for a coach.

Got another guy to bet me Tiger will take the entire year off, can you believe that!!! His sponsors will just sit back and let him do nothing?? Tiger will watch the Master, the US Open, the British Open and the PGA on TV???? R U KIDDING ME!!!!! No way will he sit back and watch. His way of getting out of this mess is to be successful at what he is known for! That's what he is, the best golfer in the world!!! If he is looking for some good times, winning majors is how he will feel better!! Not sitting at home watching the majors, or maybe he will take up knitting so he can watch the Majors and be busy??? Easiest money I've ever made is betting Tiger won't stay out a year!!

Quote of the Day
To know the heart of the Tiger, watch him when he wins tournaments, and so far he has won over 40% of the tournaments he has entered!!

  1. Tiger will be back the week before the Masters as a warm up for the Master. End of story for the other golfers.
