Sure, we all have vulgar opinions at times but there definitely is a place and time for expression and anything to the extent of expressing these thoughts on a public note is uncalled for. I highly believe that the opinion and actions of those that you personally do not respect should not phase your own actions. In Phil Savages case, he is looked at as a representative of not only his team but the state. With this high of a power, consideration of the states people should remain a focus factor when deciding how or even if to respond to a pointless comment. Do not sink to their level of ignorance just to prove a point. Do it by placing focus on your own abilities and accept it as a learning experience.

The author, The Manager, states that “whatever makes you angry today will seem less important tomorrow.” This is something that my mom taught me when I was young and I would expect a NFL coach to do the same. NFL fans are going to express their opinion about every decision you make as a coach, some of them good and some of them bad. He should have held back his emotions and realized that he is a NFL coach and even though most fans think that they could coach better he should know he is a coach because he is one of the best at it.

Phil, it seems, was fired by the Cleveland Browns yesterday after a miserable season. Interestingly, the Browns posted the firing on their website... Hmm, we thought they would have sent an email.
