“Little things are important, you follow me?” Fisher said. “I am not f---ing going 7-9 or 8-8 or 9-7, OK? Or 10-6 for that matter. This team is too talented. I am not going to settle for that, OK? I know what I am doing. We had some 7-9 bulls--- this morning. Now, Deon’s gone. That is 7-9 bulls---. We don’t need it."

Fisher knows what 8-8, or worse, feels like. In 16 seasons as a head coach in the NFL, he has six winning seasons, the rest were .500 or below. Now, he is leading the Rams back into Los Angeles 21 seasons after they left for St. Louis.

Yes, I saw the show. I'm not sure how to take Fisher's comment "We had some 7-9 bulls--- this morning. Now, Deon's gone. That is 7-9 bulls--". Is he saying that every losing season he's had in his career he's put up with "bulls--" from the players and he's not going to do that anymore? What was the "bulls--" that contributed to THOSE seasons? Just sayin'... based on his own words, one could interpret it that way. Fisher says he knows what he's doing, and maybe he really does. But isn't the value/worth of an athlete or a coach based on results? It's never been based on potential, or what you say you're going to do, or what you think you're going to do or how nice a person you are. It's based on what you actually DO, is it not? So, while this all makes for great TV, the proof will be in the pudding, as it always has been and should be.
