Wow..shocking...idiot traded for Moss, cut him, then loses the team, then is fired.
He should write a book about what not to do as a HC in the NFL.
Leslie Frazier was named interim HC,

IMO Childress lost the team before the Moss signing. He probably never had the team, but the miracle year from Favre and the resultant winning masked that. I heard a report by Rich Eisen that Moss cut was precipitated when Moss went to the owner and said, "you need to get a new coach". Moss went on to say what so many and probably most of the rest of the players thought of Childress. Childress heard Moss say that to the owner and cut Moss. Moss was/is a jerk and has other warts as a player, but he was cut in Minny for being the guy that told the owner what the rest of the team was thinking.

Leslie Frazier is going to do a good job there, The guy has waited for his chance and good for him that he gets it.

Moss had no worries about repercussions , and let his inner voice speak . Not that he was wrong in what he said , just how he said it.
So the owner took Moss's advice , just not soon enough? :) -

I also agree that Frazier will have a positive impact. I could see Minny going on small winning streak like Dallas has. -
Funny thing is even if the Vikes go on a tear, and win the rest of their games, it will not help the Dolphins at all, they play the Bills, then all NFC teams the rest of the season.

I recall that coming out as well, that the owner was considering keeping Moss and firing Chilly.
Moss being awol in Tenn and not padding his stats for next years contract doesn't rub me the wrong way either. -

I think his biggest mistake was bring Favre back. -

I tune in Don Cherry for sartorial advice ;)
Always hopeful Padre, just difficult to be optimistic , more a realist in this realm. Too many years of the Dolphins making me cry.
But hey , Darius Rucker has had a rebirth and seemingly is having a great second stage of his career , maybe he needs to pen a new song with better Dolphin lyrics? -
Has anyone told Cherry that plaids and stripes don't match?..;)
You never know, if Rucker can switch to country music then maybe we can break his jinx? -
I also heard some viking fans talk about how he is known for being very unhealthy with his diet, lot of health concerns...he could of very well lost respect for the way he took care of himself. -
Long over due IMO he is a horrible coach IMO
-
Let some other team, maybe the 49ers, make that mistake. -

BTW , he is one of the great story tellers ever, kind of guy you love having some brown pops with. Been blessed to do that a couple times and loved every single minute.
