    Mike Shanahan is "The Ultimate Leader"

    Such inflated coaching titles pale, however, in comparison to the 3,795-word gag-me-with-a-spoon official team bio of Denver's "executive vice president of football operations and head coach," Mike Shanahan. According to the official bio, Shanahan is a "key leader" of "elite status" who is "ultra-impressive" and possesses an "exceptional talent" leading to a "stunning record" that puts him in an "exclusive club" plus has "dynamic drive" and has achieved "an almost unparalleled level of success" in "an atmosphere of great pressure and expectations" during "magnificent seasons" that made the Broncos the "perfect symbol" and is "arguably the finest head coach" with "one of the most brilliant minds in football" and has "one of the most dynamic minds" and is a "brilliant coach" who is the "most fertile football mind" who has "almost completely revitalized" his team while achieving "dramatic achievement" and is "dynamic" and "renowned" and gives "superb guidance" and stands "among the game's sideline greats" and is "universally regarded at the highest level" as "an ultimate leader." Move over Albert Einstein, Ernest Hemingway, Joan of Arc, Nelson Mandela -- you are flyspecks on the windshield of history compared to Mike Shanahan. Don't you get the feeling Shanahan personally supervised his bio? Hey, coach, people of genuine achievement don't have to boast. From now on, to this column Shanahan will be The Ultimate Leader.

    I do not want this egomaniac who has achieved little without Elway.

    Re: Mike Shanahan is "The Ultimate Leader"

    In his last NINE years in Denver, all without Elway or any major production from TD, his WORST season was 7-9. How in the world is that achieving little??

    Dick Jauron, Mike Mularkey, Greg Williams, Chan Gailey and Doug Marrone are on a conference call and agree with you 100%.

    Still don't want the douchebag in Buffalo. He will tarnish the Citys' reputation as the City Of Good Neighbors.

    I think his team was almost always top 5 offense and / or running every season he coached.

    Re: Mike Shanahan is "The Ultimate Leader"

    Since Elway left Shanahan has a couple 9-7, couple 10-6, an 11-5 and a 13-3 season in Denver. So to say he hasn't won a championship since Elway left would be accurate, but to say he hasn't done anything would be 100% false.

    So out of his 10 seasons without Elway he compiled 6 seasons of 9 or more wins, 2 seasons at .500 and 2 losing seasons the worst was a 6-10 season.

    Was this a serious counterpoint? If so, interpretation please?

    But he's universally renowned as an elite, dynamic plagiarist.

    Re: Mike Shanahan is "The Ultimate Leader"

    I'll take a coach with Super Bowls on his resume before anyone on that list of bums we've been discussing.

    How many more coordinators are going to get their first HC experience at 1BD?

    Doesn't anybody see a pattern here?
