Calling Out Oliver Willis: Sports Edition
Normally, I find the distinguished Mr. Willis to be right on the money, but he just blogged about Norv Turner being hired by the Chargers as head coach at San Diego, and he said, "I am wishing nothing but total and absolute failure to the worst coach in Redskins history, Norv Turner". (Wapo Story)
All I can figure is that Mr. Willis has not been following the Redskins for as long as I have (I moved to Charlottesville, VA in 1969, and we have been a Washington family ever since).
I can conclusively say that any coach who had Christian Adolph "Sonny" Jurgensen III at QB, and did not get a ring is far worse than Norv turner, and I am including the moron George Allen, Sr. who left the Redskins with no first round draft picks for something like seven years.
Lombardi, of course, gets a pass, because he died before he could get them to the big show.
