Around SBN: A Look Back: Steelers-Chargers 2008 Regular Season MatchUp Bar-right-arrows



Herm Edwards=Lighter Art Shell?

So i was looking around today on the internet and found the following.  By the way, based on how much Bill Simmons from ESPN likes Art Shell, I don't think this is a complement.  Also, a little demoralizing when national media types start saying this two weeks into the season (Drinks more beer)

Reader Jstoner in Bakersfield believes "Herm Edwards is simply Art Shell post gastric bypass. His new nickname should be GBAS (Gastric Bypassed Art Shell)." I'm almost positive this isn't a compliment. In Herm's defense, I think I figured out his game plan after his bizarre endorsement of Tyler Thigpen this week: He's hoping to lose 18 straight games and bottom out, inexplicably keep his job, land another high draft pick, then tread water until the Chiefs find him an elite defensive coordinator, the best defensive player in the league, a dominant quarterback and a team of hungry veterans willing to play hard for him.

By the way, I will be sporting my red and gold at the Georgia Dome this weekend and if anyone has suggestions of where to go prior to the game (due to needing excessive amounts of beer to withstand the pain) I sure would appreciate it.

I'd Probably Go With "Skinnier Art Shell"

Only because the headline might be taken the wrong way.

But yes, I was thinking about this other day and Herm’s management style reminds me a lot of Shell, only Herm’s more of a bullshit artist than Shell was which I think accounts for the longer head coaching career.

Supporting the lesser of two evils is still supporting something evil.
