I was jarred awake early this morning by my phone's text message notification sound. From Korea, Kent wrote these words on my wall:
Joe Gibbs has retired from the Washington Redskins.
He went out with a winning season and a trip to the playoffs;
any other way just wouldn't be right.
HAIL JOE GIBBS!
He went out with a winning season and a trip to the playoffs;
any other way just wouldn't be right.
HAIL JOE GIBBS!
I, in kind, responded by writing on his wall:
It's redundant to say and all, but the way the team charged
into the playoffs under Gibbs' steady hand,
after all they'd been through...
absolute coaching brilliance.
By all rights, after the Buffalo game, the 'Skins
should have finished 5-11. But they went 9-7 instead.
And we have Joe Gibbs to thank for it.
I don't know if ANY other coach would have acheived
the same result given the circumstances.
Tonight, we raise our glasses high to Coach Gibbs.
And I, and we, will always love you, Coach Gibbs. Goodbye and good luck, sir.
