Redskins Searching In Reverse

January 29th, 2008

The Washington Redskins now have coordinators of their offense and defense, but they still don’t have a head-coach.

I tried to think about just how backwards this style of assembling a staff really is. Here are a few analogies I came up with, that represent a situation that makes as much (or little for that matter) sense as hiring coordinators before a head-coach.

1. Wiping before you poop (Thanks to Larry the Cable Guy).                             

2. A single guy buying an engagement ring for the girlfriend that he doesn’t have.

3. Attending college classes that you aren’t getting any credit for.

4. Making a bowl of ice cream and then watching it melt rather than deciding to eat it.

5. Putting your work clothes on before going to bed for the night.

6. Listening to loud music when you have a painful and relentless headache.

7. Buying a ticket to the Super Bowl and then leaving after pre-game warmups.

8. The New York Giants getting to the Super Bowl. (Seriously, how did this happen)?

9. Waking up as the sun comes up, just to read the paper. (Sorry morning people, but I’ve never understood this).

10. Having a cell phone but constantly keeping it turned off, so that nobody can reach you. (Sorry Mom!)
