The quotable Brad Childress:

Should we just shoot him and get it over with?

I only jest, but this is why fans hate him. Either he is playing to that persona, or he is truly an ignorant fool. I think it is a combination.

I am not his bigest fan, but he is right, that we as fans don’t have a lot to do with the outcome of the game on the field. but we do have the right to express our joy or frustrations over the performance on the field. So I see nothing wrong with this quote per se.

But I still feel we need to make a change at the top to see a different result on the field.

Line for Line its correct, wonder how he actually sounded it out, intonation means alot.

Still if we don’t show up, you get fired and the team moves i guess we would probably have some sort of say then.

totally disagree with Chilly’s comment there. We fans can have a huge impact on games at home. When it’s as loud as it gets in the dome, things get much more difficult for the visiting team’s offense and qb. Have you ever noticed that it’s extremely hard for opponents to get a first on third and long in a loud dome?

I’ve studied positive reinforcement, motivation, and winning for a long time.

All I can say is that the above quote by Childress is possibly one of the stupidest things anyone in a position of power can say, imho.

How can a coach motivate his players if he can’t even motivate his fans with a few simple words? In fact, quotes like these are demotivational. I could expect the gatoraid guy or the towel guy to say things like this, but not a head coach.
