we are a fickle bunch
I had to shake my head in wonder this weekend, and this morning listening to the sports talking heads. The topic has been the return of Tom Coughlin (and the Giants, but that seemed to be secondary) to Jacksonville, and for the most part, the angle has been the Tom Coughlin nobody knew.
Lots of heartfelt stories about Coughlin's community service, and visiting children with lukemia and raising money to cure that disease, and other things he did for people in Jacksonville that showed what a genuinely caring person he was, and what as asset he and his family were to the community, and how he was a taskmaster but the players respected him and...all of a sudden it's this lovefest from the same media guys who, four years ago, led the charge to get him fired and run out of town....and they say fans are fickle.
