Best Gibbs Quote Ever

This is an AP article on Yahoo! Sports about the difficult years Tom Tupa and John Hall had in 2004. At the bottom, the author mentions the importance of the relationship between holder/place kicker (Tupa typically holds for Hall), and Gibbs says this:

``A holder for some players is like a `binky' -- you can give them the wrong one and they won't like it,'' Gibbs said.

Looks like Grandpa Joe is starting to confuse his players and his grandkids...

I think it's safe to say this is the first time a coach has ever used the word 'binky' when describing something football related. LOL

I thought this thread was going to highlight HOF Coach Gibbs quote about the cowroids ugliness!

Lordy......

Thanks for the quick response, crlesh, I'd have got no work done until I found out.

I love Gibbs and some of his quotes, but nothing will ever compare to Jim Mora Sr. saying "diddly poo."

Binky is a "blanket" or Baby Blanket

lol
Think about Linus of Peanuts with thumb in mouth holding his...binky

No... crlesh was correct...a binky is a pacifier, not a blanket.

I thought it was both, or just a term for anything a child or childlike person deems "priceless" and needs it to sleep or stay calm. I know I've known some kids and/or their parents that have used the term binky for a multitude of items.

at first i thought it was the napkin you tie around the baby when they are eating
lol

I did a Google search for Binky. And much to my surprise I found a dog

Love the shirt on that kid in the background, must be Joe Gibbs' grandson
