I’m sure you’ve heard about the post-game presser newly minted 49ers interim coach Mike Singletary gave. If not, here it is:
When I first heard the “Can’t play with ‘em” sound bite, I swore I got a man crush for Singletary. Or maybe I wanted to vote for him as a write-in for President. Not since Lombardi has a new coach grabbed a bull by the nuts and yanked quite like that. If you watch the whole presser, he seems to have lots of incomplete thoughts. I figured - the guy’s pissed, first game as head coach, he’s ready to eat a Riddell, so he can’t quite get all his thoughts out. Forgivable. Then I watched the follow-up presser the next day:
Ok, kicking a player off the field is pretty unheard of, but at some point you have to stop entertaining the reporters by answering their questions and go just go Parcells on the issues you said you like to keep in house, and just stop answering. By going on and on about Davis and the inferences that you don’t respect him and that you’ve had issues with him prior to the taking over as head coach, you look like Jimmy Carter reincarnated as a football coach. Or Ellen DeGeneres. Carter’s not dead, you say? My bad.
