Cowher Shows More Idiocy

 

As if last week�s idiocy wasn�t a clear enough indictment of the level of stupidity and carelessness of one Billy Cowher, The Chin once again displays his overt ignorance and imbecility.

 

As I�d noted in my post-game report, Cowher played the role of dufus and idiot on MNF, ridiculously giving tutelage to Randle El on how to catch a punt.

 

Not one to follow The Law of Holes (�If you keep digging, you get deeper and deeper�), Cowhead expounded on this in his press conference:

�Q. John Madden said that he thinks that you have never returned a punt by your reactions on the sideline. Have you ever returned a punt?

COACH COWHER:
That was a real astute observation (laughter). No, I have never returned a punt. I've caught them at times. I mean, I've never run a rout. I know you don't catch it over your head. That's what I told Antwaan.

Q. Is that something he just started doing in practice?

COACH COWHER:
I tell you what, if he did it there, he did it without me noticing. I didn't notice him doing it in practice. He won't be doing it any more in practice. �

Yep, that�s Billy Cowher, at his usual worst.Shit happens in practice -- an event that HE is in charge of -- and Cowshit is totally oblivious to it.I�d mentioned this overt problem about Cowher right after Troy Edwards stepped OOB on that punt in the AFC Title Game, and how Edwards was probably doing this both in practice and in other games.And the masses of Cowshit Apologists immediately rationalized and fathomed, �If it happened in practice, you can be SURE that Coach Cowher would have seen it.�What bullshit!!Cowher sees little at practice, and what he sees is rarely ever rectified or corrected.�� This is the same dimbulb that admitted that he never saw KenBell�s huge hit on Bettis last summer -- he only �heard� it.During punts, Josh Miller routinely studies the authenticity of Tagliabue�s signature on the football -- an activity that obviously must occur in practice as well as games -- and Cowshit has never corrected it.Randle El was regularly catching punts �over his head� (for lack of better terminology) during CAMP -- I had buddies attend camp and they saw it first hand.Fat John Madden stumbled into a Steeler practice for ONE day, and saw El do this�yet Billy Cowshit, the HEAD COACH, is oblivious to what fans saw all summer and what a fat sports broadcaster saw in one day of practice.�Duh-uh, I didn�t notice it.�The Pittsburgh media, of course, just sits there and chuckles and grins, and says, �Gee, that�s funny.Bill Cowher�s a funny guy.Ha ha��Not once does the local media ever think of putting 2 plus 2 together, to get 4.Not once does the local media see the forest from the trees, and consider the enormous number of mental boners and blunders that have torpedoed past Cowher teams, and the lack of attention to detail that Cowher shows as evidenced by this pathetic claim of �I never noticed it.�Not once does the local media consider that proper preparation translates into good execution, and that the Stillers� preparation has often been lacking, and the person responsible for that preparation is the head coach.

Additionally, Cowhead had this to say about his punt-block team:

 

��that he might expose the corner, wind up with our two best pass rushers on the corners. We put Jason and Joey out there�.��� Yeah, right Bill !!We know Bill doesn�t pay attention to practice or what occurs during games, but for those of us who do, here�s the best pass rushers on this team in terms of LBs:

 

1.Joey Porter

2.Kendrell Bell (bum ankle and all)

3.Clark Haggans

4.James Farrior

5.Jason GilDong

 

Just more evidence that Cowher has no more idea about what�s going on with his football team, than he does with what�s going on in, say, Botswana.
