They're not best buds, and they're not currently fighting. But when all is said and done, CP will be running the football on Sundays.

As said above, this is only news because we have NO football for another 5 weeks.

Sure hope you're right. I'm not about to sing the praises of PFT, but they have been right before. In fact, they might be right the majority of the time. Not that that means too much, do you want to rely on a newspaper that is 51% accurate?

On the other hand, there is a good chance IMO that there is some validity to this story. I'm basing that on the past season & on CP's comments to the Wash. Times.

We have to realize this is only CP's 2nd coach here, and the 3rd of his career. He also got a new position coach last year. Riggins' comments were spot on IMO, CP has had his way since he joined the skins. Zorn tried to change that & got publicly dissed. I just don't believe everything is fine & well w/them. At the same time though, if both just conduct themselves as professionals & don't speak to the media about each other, this could be a strictly in house minor conflict that carries on the way so many personality conflicts do in work settings. It's likely no big deal unless CP wants to start calling zorn out publicly again. I'm not so sure that he can control himself once the time comes though.
