Gibbs addresses those Redskins rumors
Joe Gibbs addressed those rumors about a return to football at a NASCAR race Sunday in Martinsville, Va.
He laughed, according to the Associated Press report, when he was asked at Martinsville Speedway about rumors and Internet reports that he could return to the team as an adviser or general manager.
"That's what it is. Talk," he said. "Right here's where I'm GMing."
Gibbs disputed the idea that coaching the Redskins is made tougher by management.
"When I was there last go-round, we had somebody that was a passionate owner, cared about things and supported me in every way," he said. "I think any NFL team, it's tough when you're not winning, and those things are easy to get off. All you've got to do is look around this year and Tennessee and some of the other teams are struggling that were real good last year."
As for NFL teams' fortunes and fan impatience, he said: "It's easy to get 'em off and I think it takes a while to get them straightened out. Hopefully we get it going there [in Washington]. I think it's pro sports. The fans are passionate and they want a winner, but I think that's part of pro sports."

Gibbs being Gibbs, meaning a class act, but too PC during this instance.
