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



Congrats on a Fine Year of Football!

Sunday's events aside, let me congratulate you and your team on a stellar year of football.  No matter how things are spun, there's simply no way to discredit an 11-1 mark, particularly out of the most tenacious division in football this year.  All three teams had a phenomenal year, and that should not be lost in the noise of this incessant clamor to crown the national champion (whatever that means).

Take it from a Tennessee fan.  Things could have been a lot worse.

Thanks Hooper

And congrats on your new coaching braintrust.

Word is that you’ll have Monte Kiffin for the Defense and Trooper Taylor for the O (thanks from stealing him from OSU if true). A good mix of youth and enthusiasm to go along with old age experience and guile.

proud to swim home

You're welcome.

And every word of it was sincere. The sport is entertainment first, and it’s been a very entertaining year.

Kiffins...

I heard one of the terms to get Kiffin was if they would hire Monte also.

Monte Kiffin is one of the most respected def cord in football. His son didnt have to say the only way you get me is if you let me bring my dad. It was probly please oh please bring your dad with you.

He is a great defensive coordinator, but he comes with a huge price tag. I’m sure they didn’t have a problem with that, but I was just saying I heard that was one of the conditions.
