Goodbye Andy Reid
Sung to the tune of Elton John's Candle in the Wind
Goodbye Andy Reid
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
They crawled out of the woodwork
And they whispered into your brain
Though you never used a treadmill
The weights' the price of fame
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the Blame set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
The NFL created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you son died
Oh the press still hounded you like a lug
All the papers had to say
Was that Garrett was found with drugs
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the Blame set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
Goodbye Andy Reid
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
Goodye Andy Reid
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something more than a Football Coach
More than just our Coaching Hero
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the Blame set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid

Re: Goodbye Andy Reid
So why is Andy Reid persona non grata in Philly? Looking at the Eagles roster, they have a bunch of glorified college players that haven't done a damn thing in the NFL. I haven't seen an Eagles game in gawd knows how long( prolly since the McNabb/TO years), so inform me to why Reid has lost favor from Philly fans.

Most Philly fans are assholes....He did a hell of a lot for this team and city...but it is time for him to go.....Grace never was a Philly Fan's strong suite.
Re: Goodbye Andy Reid
I just noticed that Nick Foles is the starting QB!? Now that I think about it, I kinda feel bad for Philly fans.

Re: Goodbye Andy Reid
It is unfortunate how they are treating him now, considering what he did for that organization.

How the heck does Skip Holtz get another job so fast after displaying one of the worst coaching performances in recent memory. USF was the most talented team in the BigEast, but they looked like shit almost every week. I guess his Sylvester the Cat talking Dad is still pulling some strings.

This.
It's funny how some grown adults aren't really that smart. He will keep getting a chance because of who his father is, and the aforementioned grown adults think that just because his father was a good coach, he's gotta be a good coach, too. It's almost like drafting Michael Jordan's sons because after all, their dad is Michael freakin' Jordan so his sons have gotta be good. I remember when Holtz and son coached at South Carolina, and many people who followed the program thought the Gamecocks would be in good hands for years because they saw Lou retiring and Skip taking over. That was the LAST thing I wanted.

Well...if Holtz fucks up LA Tech,then he has no excuse any more and I doubt he gets another chance.....They have a decent returning squad coming off a 9-3 record...But then again it isn't what you know, it's who you know,or blow in some cases...
Re: Goodbye Andy Reid
Man, I just found out about Pat Sumerall. I don't even know who does NFL games now-a-days, but this guy was one of a kind.

So the Jets drafted Geno Smith? Didn't they draft Mark Sanchez a few years ago? I thought Mark Sanchez was a decent player.......until I saw this.

Re: Goodbye Andy Reid
What's up with Aaron Hernandez? The last I heard of him, he was failing marijuana tests before the draft a few years ago when he was Tebow's Florida teammate. Now he is being charged with murder? I read that the Bristol authorities took over a week to charge him, which is kinda weird and silly for a small town P.D. to take that long to charge a person they had already been investigating for murder.
Anyway, I also read that he was in a gang when he was younger (also in Bristol) and according to what I've been reading, he never grew out of that type of lifestyle. This whole thing all sounds really strange, from both the authorities and Hernandez's viewpoint. I'm curious to see the facts come out when the trial begins.
Have any of you guys been follow this?

Give me a break!!! Rich owners like this scumbag is one of the reasons why I don't watch the NFL. I know the evidence is mounting, but I'm kind of hoping Hernandez innocent.

Re: Goodbye Andy Reid
So Florida WR Riley Cooper is a dumb fuck, it's pretty obvious, but I think he's paid his penance. Yet, Holy Roller Lesean McCoy....you've got to be kidding me

Are you serious? I can't believe these hooligans are supporting Nebraska center Richie Incognito.
I remember when Incognito was kicked off the team by Frank Solich. I also remember when he tried to enroll at Oregon, but then Mike Belotti kicked him off the team for not meeting certain terms...before the season even started. Solich and Belotti are two of the most respected names in the game.
This guy is a fuckin psychopath.

When Kellen Winslow Jr. was a TE at Miami, I thought he was going to become the next Kellen Winslow when he got to the NFL. Now, he's strokin' it at Target parking lots ?!
The officer wrote that “his genitals were not exposed” but “two open containers of Vaseline [were visible] on his center console.” The report also cites the presence of plastic bags marked “Mr. Happy” and empty plastic containers of “Funky Monkey” scattered throughout the vehicle.
