mhd24 Posted December 29, 2003 Share Posted December 29, 2003 Ever read any Charger message boards? I'm not a Spurrier basher like some, but many Charger fans HATE Marty with a passion, and also share that hate for on Stephen Alexander. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bulldog Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 the truth of the matter is the local media and fans are not hard on the Redskins at all. if you look at most top 15 markets around the US, you will see a press and public more ready to jump on coaches and players for poor performances. think Spurrier would have been a hit in New York after 7-9 and then 5-11 seasons? :laugh: If he and Jerri think Washington is a meat-grinder just try selling 5-11 to Miami fans, who are chomping at the bit for changes on a team that has gone 10-6 and 9-7. It is ironic that some posters on this board think we are that tough on Mr. Gator and the front office given how others are treated. But then again, for Mr. and Mrs. Gator, revered in Florida, to be treated like mere mortals in Washington and actually get questioned about the methods being used must seem like a stoning offense :laugh: :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bulldog Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 evidently you have never lived in NY or Boston my friend Jim Fassel got fired a year removed from 10-6 and a couple of years removed from a Super Bowl. Meanwhile, here we have nothing concrete to show for 2 years of shuttling in and out players to come up with the 'big attack' that Spurrier planned on unleashing on the NFL. The Redskins were ranked #20 in offense in 2002 and #24 in 2003. Now, that is what I call scaring the opposition into submission Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen-like Todd Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 Originally posted by bubba9497 :rotflmao: All jokes aside, in my quest for news, about the only place that is really more harsh on their teams than DC I have found is NY. I disagree. While you will find some NY sports radio stations going off on anything and everything like crazed lunatics, the mass media is relatively disinterested in the Jets and the Giants. NYC revolves around baseball. Everything else lies at the fringes of pop culture attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljer Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 Jim Fassel got fired a year removed from 10-6 and a couple of years removed from a Super Bowl. Because, in case you haven't noticed, they are in worse shape than us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said that many times. They come to the ballpark. They scream and yell even though we didn't play very well this year. I thought they were super. Redskins fans are the best in pro football. That's my opinion." http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/sports/redskins/longterm/2003/week17/quotes28.htm Yep, Mr. Gator appreciates your kind words and observations Mr. Bulldog.
