You won't believe why Andy Reid is on the hot seat

by JasonB on Jul 11, 2008 3:00 PM EDT in Philadelphia Eagles News

Tom Curran, of MSNBC, wrote another one of these lists of people "on the hot seat" which I'm finding is a pretty typical offseason thing to do.

Curran's list was NFL head coaches on the hot seat. The odd thing about this particular list is that included fifteen head coaches. It seems it doesn't take much to get on the hot seat these days huh?

He listed Andy Reid as #14... but why? He's fat.

I'm not joking.

And the blunt truth of it is, Reid could probably use a year off to lose some pounds and help get his sons' lives in order since their well-documented legal scrapes of 2007.

Again he dredges up the tired old stuff about Andy's kids that's been asked and answered 50 times already. But to talk about a guy's wieght? Seems a little out of bounds and unnecessary to me.

The fit, trim, and stylish Mike Nolan of the 49ers was #1 on the hot list...

I love Andy

I hope he stays as long as needed to get the job done. I can care less about his weight. Actually, he isn’t THAT fat. He just needs to mix in a salad every now and then. We all can be guilty of loving food a little too much. Heck, I for one haven’t found a meal I would didn’t like.

Actually, he is THAT fat. But the guy can get an ice cream intravenous hookup and dress like Mayor McCheese during the games for all I care. All I want him to do is balance out the offense, improve his clock management, get a real game changing wide receiver, and win a Super Bowl? Is that too much to ask????

I find this totally disgusting. Why can’t people just move past these petty prejudices? If Andy is on ths hot seat, it should be because of job performance. He’s not an athlete, he is a coach. Show some respect for Christ sake.

Just a quick update

South Africa beat New Zealand in New Zealand in the second match of the Tri-Nations by 30-28. It was a great game, I hope that somebody on here was able to catch a glimpse. It was the perfect game to learn more about the game. Needless to say, I’m feeling pretty good right now :) World Champoins, beating the All Blacks regularly…Tri-Nations champions anyone?...
