I've been tempted alot of times this year to mute the MNF broadcast, I believe this is the first week I will actually do this.
I believe they're saving him for the Pats-Phins game. That would be marvelous!!!!what?! no Mercury Morris? come on ESPN! you can do better than just Shula.
I'm not going to join in on this kicking Shula around.
The man was a great football coach. One of the best some would argue.
Of course I don't care for his "asterisk" comment.
I believe he was manipulated into saying it by the media honchos.
The man is very old and does not have the same cranial power he once had.
If he was of a more sound mind and new exactly what happened, I doubt he would have said what he said.
The man is old, at least slightly senile and over protective of his achievement.
I will cut him slack.
But I reserve the right to change my mind if he proves to be unreasonable about it in the booth Monday night.
“The one thing we know about Coach Shula is that he will not hold anything back.’’
Normally I hate watching games in a bar...I just don't think you get the same feel for it, but the ESPN coverage is so terrible, and it will be multiplied in the negative direction this week because of Spygate/Shula, it's going to be almost an impossible listen.
I think I am going to go to a bar on Monday.
Gary Myers, who wrote the story in the Daily News that got it all started, was VERY adament, not sure where I saw it, I think the football show on the YES Network, that Shula was the one who brought up the "asterisk."
