Haley’s yelling isn’t helping

Sunday afternoon I watched the Chiefs play the Raiders. What a great way to end an afternoon of football.

However, our new and esteemed football coach, Todd Haley, just couldn’t be satisfied with the way his team was playing. He was walking along the sideline yelling four-letter words at some of his players for not lining up correctly (or as he had taught them).

It’s no wonder that his players make mistakes, because whether they are winning or losing, he’ll be on the sideline yelling obscenities at them. I’ve watched all the home games on TV, and his attitude never changes, nor does his use of the English language.

I’m certainly glad that all the people who tried to teach me how to do things were calm and easygoing. Of course, maybe Haley doesn’t know how to speak without using obscenities to make a point.

No don’t need that but Todd is making some bad decision and more than a few of the game losses have been as a result of his play calling. He overrides the offensive coordinator. With that said, players still have to execute the play properly. It boils down to the chiefs suck.

Well Kent I am fairly confident Haley is not the only person in the NFL using profanity. Players do it ON THE FIELD AND SIDELINES all the time. This entire mentality of catering to jocks and tolerating incompetence is annoying.
Maybe they should incorproate tolerance and sensitivity training and sing HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY. FCFS.....players need to be drilled like they do it in the military.

Yeah we need a soft coach that massages the millionaire players.
