Steve Spurrier's step into Politics
2007-05-06 16:20:00 I came across this article on Steve Spurrier and it provoked me. Apparently Spurrier has a problem with the presence of the Confederate Battle saltire on a monument to Confederate soldiers in Columbia.Spurrier: "I realize I'm not supposed to get in the political arena as a football coach, but if anybody were ever to ask me about that damn Confederate flag, I would say we need to get rid of it. I've been told not to talk about that. But if anyone were ever to ask me about it, I certainly wish we could get rid of it."I've always admired the old ball coach for his prowess on the field. Perhaps he should limit himself to that arena."The flag was removed from the dome in 2000 but placed at the Confederate Soldier Monument on Statehouse grounds. The state chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People said that was not good enough and continued its boycott. The initial boycott drew wide support from inside and outside the state, but encouragement for the ongo...
Why we don't miss Steve Spurrier
2007-04-20 18:24:00 Hopeful Redskins fans remain optimistic that Coach Gibbs has wrestled some or much or most or all of the decision making from Dan Snyder though there may be reason for skepticism. At a minimum, we're better off than we were during the Spurrier era as there is little doubt he wasn't the most involved decision making Coach. My blogging colleague ETVal at Big Blue View provided a very telling example to that end, per his amigo and former Washington Times contributor Rick Snider: Steve Spurrier's initial draft in 2002 was the first sign that the college coach wouldn't make it in the NFL. Spurrier was supposed to be part of the triumvirate making decisions with owner Dan Snyder and personnel director Vinny Cerrato. Instead, Spurrier knew so little about one mid-round pick that he just read the guy's stats. When someone asked for more given Spurrier faced the SEC player when coaching at Florida, Spurrier got ticked and stormed out. He couldn't believe reporters would ask for more th...
