That is a fantastic point. I remember lots of articles about how the players weren't going to buy into his style of coaching, and how the veterans were going to have a hard time with his rules. Winning the division last year sure made that stuff go away, didn't it? Still, I don't think Coughlin received nearly as many hatchet jobs as Mangini, simply because Coughlin had a track record of success and was not as secretive with the media. If Mangini can get a few wins under his belt, the media will quiet down.
they arent buying it? what the hell does that mean? they dont buy into winning? because im pretty sure thats what mangini is here to do. So if you dont buy into winning you get off the team. I dont care if your vilma, death or whoever. Things are going to change.
FYI... King is a Giants fan not Pats. He does love the Red Sox which puts him in my toilet though. Mawae...freakin Mawae. I think Mawae is gone for no other reason but he's an outspoken punk @$$. The Jets so don't need a media leak now. And seriously, who is he talking to? Curtis...nah he's got too much class. Maybe Kendall who is another outspoken putz at times. We need him for the veteran experience but he's on his last legs, too. Not buying in? Assuming that's true then Tangini will stock the roster with players who will. The loose goose Edwards days are gone. Did you see the PFW chat on ESPN the other day? The guy runnin the chat thinks the Chiefs' best hopes are an 8-8 season. Can't wait for the recycled bible belt altered Hermisms to start. Sucker coaches land you nowhere Gruden...hard ass...Super Bowl winner Parcells...hard ass...Super Bowl winner Belichick...hard ass...Super Bowl winner Cowher...freakin psycho hard ass...Super Bowl winner Dungy...softie...lifetime of failed conference championships GRRRR I'm pissed
Sounds like BS to me. Especially about the buying into Mangini. What about that story about Clemens and Katnik having to wear pads in pracice last week when noone else did because they had been screwing up, so the rest of the team voluntarily wore their pads as well. That's the sort of team mentaility Mangini is trying to build....so from that example it appears to be working...to me anyways.
I read Kings' drivel every week and one thing is for sure-HE NEVER TAKES A RISK. His writing is tepid, at best and his predictions are, well, very predictable. He is always on a very predictable bandwagon. He's saying "Ohh, the Cowboys are going to win it all this year" for two reasons 1) He is a brown-noser and wants Parcells to like him and 2) The Cowboys are being lauded because this may be Tuna's last hurrah Let me say, unequivocally, that the Cowboys WILL NOT be going anywhere near the Super Bowl this year. If King had any real balls he would say the same thing. He would also say that it is really too early to tell with Mangini. He's only coached one camp and two preseason games. And, by the way, his team looked pretty good against a favored NFC East team with a supposedly stellar defense. King is a serious milquetoast.
You are the example that the other new members on this board need to follow instead of complaining when someone calls them on starting 3 threads on the same topic and posting 6 posts in a row instead of editing one post to include more info, etc. Good job man, and good vocab, keep it up.
You know raj..dont quit your day job. I heard the entire interview...his information was 100% taken from what Kevin Mawae said...he admitted such..he even said he has no idea. A guy bitching to a guy that was released....real breaking news...go check out your guy in KC....as usual he has introduced two things he is famous for....letting other teams score...which is nothing new for KC...and not scoring..which is totally new to kc...but not to herm.
fuck king - he like the rest of the media is upset at being apart of the "oppressed" media without access to Jets info...The jets get bashed on Sirus NFL and by everyone else for the same thing...check back in 2 seasons when they site this camp as the turning point for a contender and everyone is saying I told you so...
exactly..hey..bottom line is this..nobody knows for sure what kind of coach mangini is...but you have to admit..the media sure does..without one single game being played. They miss the nfl spokesman who hangs his hat in kansas city now..as does the author of this thread..who spends hours finding any negative news he can about mangini or tannenbaum....or woody. Its your damn team...why dont you wait and see if this coach and front office delivers. Besides 10 minute speeches..that guy in kansas city didnt deliver the goods either. In fact..he announced to the world that the most important thing any coach can do is leave a team better than he found it. Yeah..kudos herm...this new regime will be cleaning up your mess for the next couple years.
Raj looks like a complete fool. The whole offseason him and champ were doubting every single move like they know what they are talkin about, and now that they are getting shown up and proven wrong they are ghost .... They are hibernating and waiting for any tiny little thing to go wrong so they can argue and exploit it
Although it may seem that I've taken leave of my senses, this is why I have a certain respect for Champ, as well as for the Raider fans on this board. That's right - I said Raider fans. Raiderjeaux and NJRaider have been dreadfully wrong every year for three years running. With every single prediction. Still, unlike Pfinz pfanz and the darkest of Jets fans, they never duck the board. They always come back to face the music.
As one of the most die-hard Jets homers on here, I still fail to see the logic behind a "fan" of a team feeling gratification from predicting the teams demise. On second thoughts, I see how if the team sucks bad enough, ownership has to step in a make changes. So if you are not a "fan" of the management, I see how one could want them to fail miserably. Thankfully, I am always open to giving a new team a chance, especially one that has no track record to compare.
I forgot about rajackass088. This is another plus of mangini he keeps idiots like this away from our board
