Ah ha ha ha Giants Coach Fassel Fired and cried like a baby
baby bitch that is :)


But they are going to "let" him coach the last two games, whatever..

http://www.nytimes.com/2003/12/17/sports/football/17CND-FASSEL.html

"In an emotional team meeting this morning, Giants Coach Jim Fassel informed his players that he had been fired as their coach, adding that he would remain in his post to coach the team's final two games. According a player who was in the room and two team officials aware of the speech, Fassel, the Giants' coach since 1997, acknowledged it was an outcome he was expecting."

2. "Baby" Might be Going a Bit Far
but you've shown that "emotionally immature" suits you perfectly.

6. I heard his press conference...

And, he could not have been any classier. Say what you will about his coaching, but pro sports could use a few more guys like Jim Fassel.

PS - no tears at all.
