Here's why i don't hate CHILLY


Chilly counts the fans he has left (not including his family)

I listen to all the press conferences.. read all the blurbs.  He never makes excuses, he holds himself accountable.. as you are supposed to.  He has never said we were a great team, he has never said we'd make the playoffs, he never  promised us a super bowl.

He always tells the truth and he doesn't sugar coat. 

Meanwhile fans with their naive expectations sit and trash him.. now let's look at Denny Green - THERE was a guy who'd make excuses, who had too much pride, who was stubborn. There was a guy who refused to be accountable.. now THAT was annoying.


Bud Grant was over rated.  Les Steckle sucked.  Mike Tice was a inside joke by McCombs.. but he did OK considering he had the lowest paid team in history.. My favorite was Jerry Burns, anyone know where I can find his rant defending Bob Schnelker and his "give up play"

So are people just mad at CHILLY because of our record- they thought we'd be 6 and 1 right now? We'd have the best defense in the league and a really good offense?  Stats don't mean anything, neither do rosters on paper.  Injuries, luck, penalties, turnovers, drops all affect the Ws.  Look at dallas right now.  New England.  Ouch

We got a solid team making the transition into a real good team.  I am content.  If  the rubes would actually listen to the press conferences and read the quotes they'd realize chilly is smart, candid, and even at times, funny.

Sure he's "un-proven" but that doesn't mean anything.  Our team doesn't quit and they don't moan about CHILLY so neither do I

Sure he's a funny looking guy.. an odd duck but he's not inept like people make him out to be.


this kid should hold a chart over HIS face
