Coach Joe Gibbs

I love Joe Gibbs. In my completely unbiased, SuperFan opinion, Joe Gibbs is the greatest coach in the history of professional sports. He's been the leader of my beloved Washington Redskins for the majority of my life. So it broke my heart to see him resign this morning.

I understand his reasoning, and I accept that. But to realize that I will never see Coach Gibbs guiding the Redskins on the sidelines, is still hard for me to grasp. After his first retirement, we Redskins fans always hoped for his return, and eight years later, we got our wish. With retirement #2, we know he's not coming back.

It's been a tough season both on and off the field. And despite the various obstacles, we were still a good team. Hopefully whoever takes the reins will build upon the team Gibbs created.

Joe Gibbs is truly a man among men, and a gentleman in every sense of the word. I will miss him as Head Coach of the Washington Redskins more than words could ever possibly express.

Hail to the Redskins.

"I love the Redskins. I'm a Redskin. I'm a Washingtonian. So much of our lives [are here]. This is what we love." -Coach Joe Gibbs at his farewell press conference
