Jim Mora Jr. is a prophet! (Sort of)
2008-02-06 14:48:00 From All on the Field sports blog: Jim Mora Jr. likes Seattle a lot. Now that he's being named as Mike Holmgren's successor, it looks like he'll get to stay awhile. Perhaps you recall the flak in 2006 when Mora, then head-coach of the Atlanta Falcons, went on air to say that he would take a job at

Jim Mora, Jr. will get an interview
2008-01-16 18:59:00 Although Gregg Williams had his fourth interview with the team yesterday, solidifying rumors that he is the favorite to take over the Redskins (related: Ben says no to Al Saunders but also vows to comment on Williams tomorrow, and I look forward to reading that). others will get their chance, including newcomer to the discussion Jim Mora, Jr. per Fanhouse who will be interviewed by the team later today. Per MDS at Fanhouse: All things considered, Mora did a pretty good job in Atlanta. When he arrived the Falcons were coming off a 5-11 season, and he got them to the NFC Championship in his first year. Mora is the kind of coach who can get along with a hands-on boss like Redskins owner Dan Snyder. Michael also likes coaching prospect Jim Schwartz, admittedly because he is cut from the same statistically obsessed fabric as MDS -- and me, though I lack the formal training to do anything with numbers but consume. "Complicating" matters is that Jim Mora, Jr. could very well be the Seahawk...

2007-12-27 01:36:00 The Lakers are for real, fa real! After S. watched them easily dispatch the Suns, the Stankoniforous One is starting to take notice. Now it could be that the Suns have finally fallen off, which is entirely possible. S-dot’s gut tells him that the Lakers have finally come together. The most ...

How Exactly Is Jim Moran Wrong, Steny?
2007-09-19 21:19:00 Allow me to add my admittedly small voice to the chorus in support of Rep. Jim Moran (D) of Virginia for his criticism of AIPAC and its influence in our decision to wage our disastrous war in Iraq. I don?t know much else about Moran concerning his voting record or any public statements he?s made, but I give him credit for naming the ?elephant in the room? here.And after Moran received the obligatory public dressing-down from House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, we are treated to this lie.AIPAC tells CNN it has taken no position on the Iraq war.That should just about set off convulsions of rage, especially after reading this story from April 2003 (particularly this excerpt)?Officially, Israel is not one of the 49 countries the administration has identified as members of the "Coalition of the Willing." Officially, AIPAC had no position on the merits of a war against Iraq before it started. Officially, Iraq is not the subject of the pro-Israel lobby's three-day meeting (in Washington, D...

Atlanta Falcons Owner Arthur Blank's Firing Of Jim Mora, Jr.
2007-01-02 21:47:01 Atlanta Falcons Owner Arthur Blank's New Year's Day firing of Head Coach Jim Mora, Jr. was not a good business decision. The simple reason is that his record not just of 26-22 will be hard to top but his record of winning the NFC South division and his development of Quarterback Michael Vick as well. The problems the junior Mora had were very fixable. The real focus should be on the defense, but the media's fixation with Vick seems to have infected the Falcons ability to adress this area. The counter to this is that they did make trades to improve the defense, but more change is needed in the area of scheme. Their defense is far too predictable. Perhaps making a change in defensive coordinator would have helped. Indeed, certainly it would. But Blank has thrown out the baby with the bathwater. I think what did in Mora Jr. was his comment that he would want to coach at Washington. I understood what he meant, but it was taken far out of context. It was the focus of too mu...
Jim Mora Sr. Is Off-Base: Is This Because Michael Vick's Bla
2006-12-02 15:14:20 Recently, Jim Mora Sr. made a comment that Michael Vick was a "coach killer." I really think that's an off-base statement, and I've got to wonder to what degree Michael Vick's skin color has to do with this. I mean if Mora Sr. was the coach of the Falcons, would he have started, let alone draft Vick?I say no.I state this based on a lot of drive-time hours spent listening to the elder Mora on Fox. One day, Mora said that he'd routinely hire any coach with an Italian last name. He did say this, went on and on about it, and I fumed. I was thinking "I guess that's a weird way of saying he'd never give a young black head coach a chance." Wow. So I immediately formed the view that the elder Mora may have a race issue that clouds how he sees NFL talent, including Michael Vick. Mr. Mora, I've got news, the problem with the Falcons passing game rests in the design of the passing game, not in Michael Vick. I was just watching the NFL Network's telecast replay of the Falcon... |
