I wasn't a fan of McDaniels last season, wasn't a fan of McDaniels in
the first half of this season, and I'm *really not* a fan of McDaniels in
the second half of this season. I've been missing Charlie Weis more and
more...

WHAT? Charlie Weis of Notre Dame?
You've got to be kidding!

No, I'm not kidding. Weis was an excellent offensive coordinator who
made uncanny mid-game adjustments when the going called for it - something
McDaniels hasn't learned how to do yet. I rarely disagreed with CW's
play calling, and the Pats won three superbowls with him calling the shots
with *a lot less player talent* than they had this year...

/daytripper

I guess those uncanny calls didn't work for Notre Dame at least this year.
When the Irish were 1-7, they were ranked 119th in rushing offense, 112th
in passing, and 118th in scoring out of the 119 teams in Division 1-A.
Yup signs of an excellent offensive coordinator or was Brady Quinn that good
those previous years?

So being the offensive coordinator for three superbowls means nothing to
you?

Why should it mean anything to me?

Ah - ok, I thought we were having an actual discussion of the relative merits
of two coaches.

No problem, I need to go replace an inner tube on a snowblower tire, which
will be much more entertaining than a gain-saying contest...

/daytripper (and I bet that tube will hold up its end of the argument ;-)

The rest of us in New England thank you. Everyone (you know who you are)
knows that once the snowblower in in tip-top shape and ready to do its job,
we'll have very little snowfall for the remainder of the winter. Keep up the
good work!

Yes agree, I'm smiling too.
There are other things more important in life than sports.
Good luck with your tire.

You are certainly welcome :-)

Indeed, that strategy certainly worked the last two years, so - on behalf of
you all (well, other than those who still feel compelled to intentionally
slide around on snow ;-) - I shall not screw around with the forces of nature!

/daytripper
(tho that tire has a mean look - I think it's out to eat a finger or two!)

Mission accomplished.
If we get any appreciable snow from here out, it's not on me ;-)

/daytripper (no fingers were lost, though patience was tested...)

It really doesn't matter to me personally. Since I'm claiming "post-op"
condition (which can be extended at any time), moving snow is not on my
list. Robyn, however . . .

/daytripper (no fingers were lost, though patience was tested...)

Good to hear. My appendages, however, could be in peril as the season wears
on (see above.)
