Most posters on here (including me) don't have a clue how to coach or play football at a sophisticated level. With all the distractions we have had why would we expect more? Not many people can take over a key position in a new company and have the change be made with no problems or controversy.
The critics abound but there are way more fans than critics and we are going to be supporting you regardless of where we are at or end up. We are building for next year and will be looking forward to a strong finish this year topped off by a victory over the Cats.
I noticed this weekend that their were interceptions, fumbles, missed tackles, blocked field goal attempts and even missed field goals in the NFL and these guys are paid to play. There is only one unbeaten team in the NFL. How is that possible with highly paid coaches and players?
As the coach of the Green Bay Packers says -
''There's such a fine line between winning and not winning. I think that sometimes gets lost in the conversation that the players and the coaches go through and when it doesn't go your way,'' McCarthy said. ''I think sometimes when you give honest answers to questions. Things get skewed and strong opinions are made about individuals or how we're playing.
''We're 3-3, and I know exactly why we're 3-3. But I (also) know how to continue to improve. Maybe that gets old, but that's the way we operate. It's about fundamentals, it's about having the proper mindset and energy. Teams have to work and improve throughout the year at practice, we're doing that. Those are things we're focused on...''
I think the same is true for the Griz. While I am disappointed I am not giving up on this team, these young men and these coaches. I am a Griz and will always be one. Eastern Washington is now ranked number one and we had them on the ropes. The difference between a good record and the record we have is very close. The cupboard is not empty. We are still a good team, we have good talent, that talent will continue to improve, some breaks will go our way and we will get better. Adversity makes us all better.
Griz nation (sans a few individuals) is strongly behind you. Make Montana proud and Go Griz!!!
