Rod Marinelli

Ok, still home, still sick.  Kinda bored, but have PS2 games to play.  Yeah, I know, PS2, old, but I already have it, so I'm using it.  Have a Wii, but that uses to much movement for me.  Maybe next week.  I could go onto my iMac, but it's downstairs in the basement, and it's cold down there.  

OK, Bears stuff:  Rod Marinelli.  Not sure what to think.  On one hand, he has been known as a good D coach, and I don't blame the whole Detroit Lions thing on him, but going from a head coach to a D-line coach?  Hmmm.  I hope for the best.  We need to really shore our Running D, and maybe he'll help.

Now, his comments to the Detroit Press at the Senior Bowl:  I don't blame him at all.  The Detroit press harassed the man constantly in Detroit, and I remember one of them asking an inappropriate question about one of his coach's, who happened to also be his Son-in-law.  So, he is done with Detroit, and he showed them that with his comments.  Now, he could have probably chose a better way to express hi feelings, but, in the heat of the moment, it happened.  I saw in a couple of places that there was some question of firing him.  Know, really, firing the man?  Good golly, why!  He made a small comment, apologized for it, and moved on.  What about the reporter that asked about his Coach Son-in-law?  Was he reprimanded?  Did he apologize?  Should he have been fired?  Get a grip, people.  This is life, people say things in the heat of the moment.  This is just stupid.

Next time, maybe about the Chicago Mayor commenting about having another Chicago NFL team...
