Rick Reilly took his head out of his ass for long enough to write this article about Norv Turner.
I have to say, I really feel for the guy after reading this. I've noticed the past year I've been saying "say what you will about Norv, but his record is pretty damn good". Could it be possible I'm starting to like him? He's not an asshole like almost all other football coaches (cough, Rex Ryan), and he has a good rapport with his players. If you're San Diego's GM, would you ever fire someone with 3 division titles and a 3-3 playoff record? His replacement would not do better, at least immediately.
So kudos, Norv. Now you're acceptable at the very least.

I'm pretty sure this is the SAME GM who fired a coach after going 14-2...just saying...
Psh, Marty Schottenheimer set a new standard for underperforming coaches that year. I think he actually makes Turner look good.
