Good Morning well it's been a very dramatic weekend of sports up and downs. Brad Childress decided to clean house this weekend by letting go of Wes Chandler (receivers), Dean Dalton (running backs), Mark Ellis (assistant strength and conditioning), Rich Olson (quarterbacks), Jim Panagos (assistant defensive line and special teams), Kevin Ross (assistant secondary), John Tice (tight ends, assistant offensive line) and Rusty Tillman (special teams), and also well known Defensive Coordinator Ted Cottrell.

So with all those cuts who is left coverage coordinator Chuck Knox Jr., offensive assistant/assistant quarterbacks coach Randy Hanson, strength and conditioning coach Kurtis Shultz, offensive quality control coach Todd Downing and Sid Pillai, who is the Vikings' coaches support administrator.

So lets talk about replacements:

Defensive Coordinators:

Steve Spagnuolo Linebackers Coach Eagles
Mike Singletory Linebackers Coach 49ers

Offensive Coordinators:

Darrell Bevell Quarterbacks Coach Packers
Pat Shurmur Quarterbacks Coach Eagles

Offensive Lineman Coach:

Jim Hueber Offensive Line Coach Wisconsin Badgers
Pat Morris Former Offensive Line Coach Lions

Linebackers Coach:

Pete Bercich Vikings Current Linebacker Coach
Kevin Cosgrove Defensive Coordinator University of Nebraska

Running Backs Coach:

Eric Bieniemy running backs coach UCLA
Ted Williams running Backs coach Eagles
Brian White Co-Offensive Coordinator and Running Backs Wisconsin Badgers

Special Teams Coach:


Brian Murphy Special Teams Coach Wisconsin Badgers
Chris Walsh Former Assitant Special Teams Coach Vikings
Ted Daisher Special Teams Assitant Eagles

Other Sports Notes:

The Minnesota Timberwolves lost both of there games this weekend and need a change to keep going. They play Milwakee and Chicago on Tuesday and Wedensday and need a win on both nights to keep going.

The Wild won on Saturday and are one of the hottest teams in the league. They play the Dallas Stars tonight it is always a great game to watch to see if the old team can beat the newone.

The Minnesota Twins failed to get Corey Koskie so the Milwakee Brewers decided to pick up his large salary hopefully when we play them in July in will be on IR for the rest of the season.

Please leave comments. Thanks.

The Brewers fleeced the Blue Jays. Of the 11 mil left on Koskie's contract, the Jays are picking 7 mil. Koskie is a steal at 2 mil/year....

The Blue Jays were willing to pay at least $3 million of the $11.5 million Koskie. But there are incentives like a six million bonus if he has so many at bats. The contract is very expensive and Koskie isn't worth the money.
