The Toughest Gig in Football

One is a winner, the other a choker...does that sound right to you?
After enduring the annual barrage of hasty, over reactionary post Super Bowl analysis, I have but one conclusion to draw. Under no circumstances would I ever, *EVER*, want to be an NFL quarterback. Shy of the presidency of the United States, I can't think of a more polarizing job.

One the one hand, it's the absolute best job in the world. Just ask Eli Manning! Thanks to a handful of good/great games, and an inordinate amount of luck, the younger Manning is now a sure-fire Hall of Famer and is maybe the better Manning after all. That's right, a guy with a career completion percentage of under 60%, who has only had a QB Rating above 90 twice in his career, and who has had just one great season in eight years is a HOF lock. And why? Because his TEAM, and I do emphasize TEAM, won four games in 2008 and four games in 2012. Great gig if you can get it!

Easiest/Scariest Coaches To Fire

Sometimes, sucking it up and losing is the best choice.
Prince and I were having a typically mindless conversation the other day, when the topic of firing head coaches came up. Now, I work in HR, so I've had to have some awkward conversations with people. It isn't easy. Still, I've never had to sit face-to-face with a person and inform them that they are being terminated from their position. Honestly, it doesn't sound like a lot of fun.
