A week ago I posted a blog based on a rumor. I admitted it was a rumor, not that I get much credit for that. I said I heard Mike Singletary won't let his assistant coaches talk much to the media because he wants to protect offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye who is inarticulate.
A few minutes ago Raye met the media. This is how he came across in a spirited, demanding question and answer session. He is articulate, careful, precise, soft-spoken, smart, thoughtful, patient, decisive and clear-thinking.
He used words like: verbiage, nomenclature, contingencies.
What I wrote last week about Raye was all wet. I deeply apologize to him.
Good man Lowell!
You and Joe Biden.....Two of a kind.
Ok well that's fair of you Lowell. In my world people who hide their lack of intelligence well, use words like that all the time. Lets see if he can call plays.
OK Lowell, good job. We all make mistakes and taking credit for it is classy.
wow, you are impressed easily, or is it you want to be impressed? He will bore you, hell he would bore dennis erickson. Raye is a dime a dozen- there is nothing there. A coach collecting a check, ticked he never amounted to much in pro footballs coaching ranks, just a qb coach last yr at the age of 64- bad hire by singletary
Some of you are missing the point. The comments and subsequent apology have nothing to do with whether or not Raye will be a good coach. It has everything to do with his ability to be articulate when addressing the media.
Nice gesture Lowell.
Credit where credit is due.
Now, learn from this!
