Cerrato on Zorn

[calia]

I think we should start a new poll:

Who would you identify as the all-time biggest nemesis to the Redskins organization? (The list of guys we love to hate is actually pretty long; once I got started, it was hard to know where to stop.)

a. Vinny Cerrato
b. Jerry Jones
c. Bill Parcells
d. Randy White
e. Buddy Ryan
f. Michael Irvin
g. Mark Bavaro (every time we play the G-men, I am still expecting to see him in the endzone with the football)

VC has my vote -- he's had more of a negative effect on the team and for a longer time than anyone else. The man is corrosive.

(Others should feel free to add to the list and vote.)

Maybe if Notre Dame continues down into the toilet, they'll give him a shot at doing...something.

I would be surprised if he ever worked for an NFL team again. I could see him in college recruiting or TV/Radio but I can't ever see another NFL team hiring him.

Given his track record in terms of drafting and managing the draft picks for the Redskins over almost a decade, I doubt that ESPN will be retaining his services as a commentator during the NFL Draft coverage any time soon.

Now maybe Comedy Central might take him on if Comedy Central decided to do a total spoof of the NFL Draft...

Snyder selected Vinny Ceratto over Gregg Williams. What a strange time that was.
I remember being so pissed off when I read the article below, I immediately went on the warpath and posted my hate for VC and Snyder. Some of you guys told me to be patient and give VC a couple of years to run the team his way and show what he could do. I knew it was wrong then.
Typical of the VC era in DC, someone (vinny) leaked to the press that Williams was disrespectful to Gibbs in his interview. Williams confronted Vinny and DS and they both denied Williams was ever disrespectful to Gibbs. Pussy's!

I forgot about the whole "disrespected Gibbs" leak. It was a fiasco. I was pissed too. First, GW not getting the job, then Fassell getting the job (supposedly), then Zorn getting the job. Then the leak.

GW was the best choice for the job and didn't get it. I think Jim Schwartz was in the mix too, but I don't think he was offered, maybe b/c he wasn't going to accept it. Jim Schwartz is a good football coach.

By the way can anyone give me a ball park figure of how much Cerrato made during his 10 years here in DC? I heard somewhere that the average salary for a GM in the NFL is something like $600,000.

Whatever the salary, it all went up his nose.

This is the Vinny Cerrato thread, not the Charlie Sheen thread.

Exactly. While both are proven to have been heavy cocaine users in the past (Vinny with his draft history and Charlie Sheen with well you know) the fact remains that the Charlie Sheen thread involves #winning. A concept that is completely lost on fallen Lord Vinny.

Take special note to what the cat beside of him is saying.

Ya know.......in 2016 when we are reflecting back on our two most recent super bowl wins we will be laughing about the Vinster and how he became a lighting rod that forced a proper rebuild of our beloved Redskins that propelled us back to the promised land.

VC should never ever be heard on the radio or tv. He's just sounds like a really stupid person. He should be a scout or something and that's it. He sat there and trashed Zorn yet didn't take ownership of the hire.
