What's Brown's coaching track-record since 2005?

You mean when he took a young (the type of team he doesn't relate to right?) Bobcats team with limited talent from 35-47 then to 44-38 and into the playoffs the following season?

Then after he gets canned they go back sub-.500 and out of the playoffs?

I don't think ant reasonable basketball fan is really gonna blame Brown for the 1 year stint with the Knicks.

That's the man you want leading this team?

Hell yeah, especially for a team that has a lead guard with limitless talent surrounding by a bunch of chuckleheads that don't understand the game and lack discipline.

it would be nothing short of a miracle if he'd actually agree to coach this team.

You're right, but I can dream.

Maybe its my wishful thinking but I think John Wall is enough to make any coach think about giving this team a go IF they put a decent FO in place.

Larry Brown is a curmudgeon and is notorious for not meshing well with younger players.

Larry Brown is a crumudgeon.

And I'm not gonna sit here and argue media perception.

But its kinda far fetched to say he doesn't mesh well with young players since the NBA is filled with young players and he's had success virtually everywhere.

Shoot, he couldn't even get the best out of Lebron, Wade, and Melo in the Olympics a few years back.

You can think whatever you want.

But, when it comes to situations like that I'll side with a coach like Browns over almost any NBA 'superstar'.

Also, in the grand scheme of Larry Browns career do you really think only winning a Bronze with a relative bunch of directionless superstars is an indictment of his coaching abilities?

Is every coach that didn't win Gold a bad coach?

Is that the point you are trying to make?

Larry Brown's coaching achievements overwhelmingly out number his failures that I don't even think I have to go into them or do I?

He's better suited for a veteran-laden squad. We need a coach who can grow with this team as well. I'd like to see Sam Cassell get a shot if Flip is (hopefully) canned.

I'm not going take anything away from Cassell to state that I think Larry Brown is a better coach then him for any type of team.

My second choice after Brown would be Jerry Sloan.

No, no and no. He is done as an NBA coach.

Why?

I have no idea if Larry Brown does or doesn't want to coach again.

But if he did who would be a better coach to turn a team around?

Larry Brown.

Sal Pal is on 980 and keeps saying he thinks McNabb is going to Minnesota after this season

I caught the tail when he was talking about the Vikings weapons and being back with Childress.

While its plausible i can't believe any sane QB would walk away from Mike Shanahan to be led by Brad Childress.

The Ravens have 4 QBs on their roster

Flacco, Bulger and Troy Smith and John Beck

I would rather have Troy Smith or John Beck then Rex Grossman

I've kinda always thought this but Jason Campbell reminds me of Carson Palmer.

both throw a pretty ball and have good arm strength and ball velocity

and Marko Mitchell reminds me of Chris Henry

Just a random thought

Mike Patrick is the WORST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

..but i love our preseason schedule...even if the starters only play between 2 quarters or 1 series..we are going up against good teams with great offenses and defenses....i feel this will really let us kno where we stand this season after watching these games...o and is it just me that wants to see the all burgandy jerseys again?

No, i like the all burgandy jerseys also.

I love preseason. Seriously.

I love it.

Its the only chance to see some of the younger players in action and get an idea of wether or not they can play.

And i agree that some games can help give a basic idea about the team.

A few things i learned from last years preseason games:

the offensive line was gonna struggle

that Tryon wasn't ready to play

that Horton and Moore were ready

that the rookie WRs weren't a featured part of the offense

that Fincher is a good back-up LB

that DE Rob Jackson has some ability

Marcus Mason knows how to run

Me likey burgundy!

your sig is mesmerizing

Beat the Steelers!!!!

Burgandy on Burgandy sun lets go!!

lol, you all act like I'm the only one who doesn't like the damn uniforms! Geez, I'm sorry if I hurt anybody or as it seems, everybody's feelings here. I just don't like the all burgundy and I feel like I'm standing in the middle of a lynch mob.

Well, if it makes everybody happy, I love the all burgundy uniforms. As a matter of fact, they should add all burgundy shoes to go along with it and shoe laces to boot.

We are not doomed! :notworthy

LoL! Yeah bro people have a tendency to 'wolf pack' on this board. I like the idea of wearing all burgandy. You don't like the all Burgandy, cool.

It might be a youth thing. It makes me think back to my college days when the terps would change their uniforms.

HTTR!

This feels like a college game to me. I haven't been this amped for a regular season game ever.

Redskins will be wearing all Burgundy for tonight's game so support the team and wear your Burgundy to the game.

Where did you hear that?

Sounds like a rumor. It would be cool though.
