And, because of that, the HQ loves them some Mike Zimmer...
Zimmer was part of the Petrino staff that was deserted when he bailed on the NFL and took the job as head man at Arkansas.
For those of you who forgot what that was like...
Enjoy... it's Greenie and Dat Dude...
((HT: ESPN/Youtube))
Zimmer is now part of the Cincinnati Bengals staff that is coming to Atlanta for a game against the Falcons Sunday...
Tom Archdeacon of the Dayton Daily News was around when Zimmer lit Petrino up...
“He is a coward. Put that in quotes. He ruined a bunch of people’s lives, a bunch of people’s families, kids, because he didn’t have enough nuts to stay there and finish the job. That’s the truth.
“Most people in football have enough courage about them and enough fight to stick through something and not quit halfway through the year. It is cowardly.
“He came in and said he resigned, he would talk to us all at a later date, walked out of the office and no one has ever talked to him since. Not that anybody wanted to.
“He’s a gutless b-----d. Quote that. I don’t give a s---.”
Sensing reporters might not be able to use his most profane descriptions, Zimmer quickly amended them:
“How about this: ‘Gutless MF.’ You can use that.”
How awesome is all of that...???
Thought you'd like it...
