So, Joe Philbin has been hired to be the head coach of the Miami Dolphins.
From a football perspective, there are some interesting angles there. How responsible is he for the Packers' offense? Is he going to succeed as a first-time head coach? Does this mean the Dolphins get Flynn? et cetera
But, the part that really interests me is that Philbin's son died a couple of weeks ago. Do reporters cross that line and ask? Is it a line? Does the fact that he was 21 make a difference? What are the details surrounding his death? Did this somehow play into the Dolphins' decision making? How? Did it play into Philbin's decision making? How? What's the story with the rest of his family? How do players feel about this? Do they even care?
Roy Firestone always bugged the shit outta me, but I feel like we need an Oprah-type show focused on sports. Someone with enough pull to get people to come on and talk about everything. I'm available.
