I agree and have made the same points here before. But don't expect to make any headway with the Grudenites. It's like a cult at this point.

You aren't gonna make much headway with points that aren't valid. I forgot, how many Super Bowls did Dungy win with the team "he" built for Gruden?

I have a buddy who coaches at Vineland (Up in Jersey), he is the RB/Special Team's Coach (Weird combo, but it is a high school).He said Gruden supposedly came to his school today as some type of community service type event. Anywho, my friend, Gruden, and Coach Russo were chatting before the (supposed) event started. He asked Gruden straight up if he was coming Knoxville and he responded by saying, "We shall see." He said he smiled and then changed the convo. Don't shoot the messenger. It seems strange to me that Gruden would be up in Jersey this week, because NFL isn't covering anyone in that area.

I saw a documentary about him getting fired at Oakland, hired by Tampa Bay, and facing his old team in the next Super Bowl. The Raiders did not change anything in their playbook that Gruden himself drew up.

Now, I think Gruden knows his football, but he won that Super Bowl in large part due to Oakland's stupidity. If you know the strengths of your own plays, you are going to know the weaknesses and how to defend them.

I will be shocked if he takes another coaching job. Like John Madden, he is locked into color commentary broadcasting. If he coaches again and screws up, he would have a hard time regaining that job. Oh he talks getting back, but that is just his own self-promotion.

The idea of having him is good, but that is probably all it ever will be.

Not sure which documentary you watched but the facts are just a wee bit off. Oakland didn't fire him, they traded him for a kings ransom in draft picks.

If I was Haslam and could pull strings to get CJG to Tennessee, I would at least make him say no to being the Browns coach. Other than CJG loving Tennessee and the Brown's organization being a dumpster fire, what is the reason for coaching at Tennessee over the Browns?

3 times actually for work. After an hour each time I couldn't wait to go home. On my last trip, clients told us we had to go eat at a certain restaurant . We caught a cab and asked them to return later to pick us up. The cab driver's reply was: make sure you pay and are out here by 8;30pm, no cab will come down to the flats after 9pm.
