Marty Schottenheimer


There's a fine line between being obsessed with winning the Super Bowl and with being plain stupid.
Exhibit one: The firing of legendary coach Marty Schottenheimer. He's won more than 200 NFL games in his career. He took his San Diego Chargers to the NFL's best record, this past season, at 14-2. So what's his sin? I mean aside from not reaching and winning the Super Bowl? Here's his sin: His general manager doesn't like him. In this case, general managers outrank head coaches. My advice to Marty Schottenheimer is to do absolutely nothing for one full year. This way you can collect every penny of the $3 Million that the Chargers have agreed to pay you for next season.
Hey Marty, write a book - everybody's doing it!
