Re: Zorn's I'm A Soldier Moment

What I do love is that's he's this pissed after a WIN. He's not satisfied. He knows we should have pounded the Lions. Good stuff. He'll be kind of sheepish tomorrow, but now we've all seen that flash. That goof-ball style he has doesn't mean he's not intense.

Re: Zorn's I'm A Soldier Moment

I don't think this counts as an "I'm A Soldier" moment. In order to make such a remark, the speaker must (1) publicly construct an asinine, egotistical metaphor (2) at an inappropriate time and (3) in a tone that is totally disproportionate to the tone of the interviewer.

It looks like Zorn's statement only meets condition three and thus fails the venerable Winslow Test.

I would say we could call this "pulling a Denny Green," but that would involve storming out of the room immediately after making the statement*. It could be "pulling a John L. Smith," but that would involve some light self-flagellation. Maybe it was "pulling a Mora?"

In my opinion, Zorn didn't do diddly-poo wrong in that interview. We have way bigger fish to fry this week. GO SKINS!

Did you see Blache on Comcast last night. Talk about not being satisfied. I'd be scared if I were a defensive player. He is on a mission for perfection. He called us the worst 6-2 defense in the league. Not a happy man last night.

Blache expects an elite defense. He will accept nothing less. He will humble you quickly. Good man.

NO, didn't see it. Glad that you posted that. Light that fire baby, here's a match. We got tough games against good teams coming up.

I saw it. I tune in to Comcast after the games just to hear Blache. Did you hear his comment about the skunk?? I almost think he's too tough on these guys. When you're holding an NFL team to 57 yards rushing w/out your best D-linemen I'd say that's pretty good. But you're correct, Blache wants perfection and I'm glad he's our DC.

Re: Zorn's I'm A Soldier Moment

This is Off Topic but Zorn's giving the reporter some crap reminded me of another meldown a number of years ago. Hal Mcrae, manager K.C. Royals meltdown in 1993.

Cool Re: Zorn's I'm A Soldier Moment

Man this is good chit. Love to see our coach has the fire and doesn't take crap or dish it. Straight shooter, no what you're getting with Zorn. Meltdown, I don't think so. He's human like the rest and if you disrespect, plan on the same. Zorn for Pres!!!
