I was pissed about Rocky too, but he's just getting better and better. Just goes to show if you choose guys with the right character, hard-workers committed to improving their craft, it will work out ok. Say what you want about Gibbs, but he's always understood that.

Nice post. It's never mentioned, but you never hear any of our guys on the police blotter. And that's in the Baltimore-Washington area, not freakin' Green Bay, Wisconsin. That does say alot about Gibbs as an evaluator of people, not just players.
This makes me think that Joe Gibbs would have probably been an even better college coach than a pro one. Not to say that he doesn't have all of the skills and attributes necessary for the NFL, but his leadership and moral code would've made him a great teacher for young people.
