Football Coach

The Resume

Why he might be annoying:

    His NFL playing career lasted only one season.
    He got his first coaching job from his dad.
    During his best season as head coach, the Bengals went 7-9.
    He proved coaching talent is not genetic.
    After being fired by the Bengals, he went back to work for his father, this time at Shula's Steak Houses.

Why he might not be annoying:

    As a teen, he painted blocking sleds and did laundry for the Dolphins.
    He broke his dad's record as youngest head coach of the modern era.
    He apparently inspires great loyalty, judging from Mike Brown sticking with him through back-to-back 3-13 seasons.
    He oversaw Shula's Steak Houses expansion from six restaurants to becoming one of the nation's top five chains.
