One can’t help but feel a little sorry for Jim Zorn. They way I understand it, he was at first hired to be offensive coordinator for the Redskins when Joe Gibbs left as head coach, then was promoted to the top spot when Daniel Snyder couldn’t find anyone else. Well, now he’s toast, sadly. His 695-day reign in our nation’s capital lasted longer than three presidents — William Henry Harrison (31 days), James Garfield (199) and Zachary Taylor (491). All three died in office, and the best that can be said of them I think is that they never came up with this.
So as we await Mike Shanahan — or whomever — to ride in and take over this mess, here are the many faces of Jim Zorn. We will miss them all.
Let’s go Monday, the week isn’t going to start itself.
ABOUT LAST NIGHT …
What you missed while starting the New Year right …
* And with the first pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, the St. Louis Rams choose Ndamukong Suh, defensive end, Nebraska.
* NBA: Cash me out, stewardess.
* Hockey: USA vs. Canada for junior world domination.
