Symbolically, that’s awesome. But that voter should probably never be allowed to vote again. Good thing it was a run away decision because can you imagine if that vote would have actually decided the result?

Russell's charity reportedly spen more on employees than doing actual charitable works. They spen $600,00 on charity and $1.1 million on salaries from 2020-21. Ryan Tarpley, CEO of the charity, made double industry standard in salary. He is also Chief Strategy Officer for the Wilson's home office, which is illegal double dipping.
If you want to become infuriated, Yahoo! has a good story on it.
As a bonus, the Wilson Celebrity Golf Tournament boasted about $2million in donations to a Seattle children's hospital. But in actuality only donated $78,000 while the Tournament itself cost $800,000.

There are over head costs for charity. That's reality. You're going to need to be a lot more specific

I remember Bill Simmons advocating that he hire an assistant whose sole responsibility would be to manage the clock. The only thing separating Andy from greatness. It is nice to see the improvement.

I believe there is a website that tracks big charities, and I am pretty sure most of them are like this....and that sucks.

They said he did a couple of years after coming to KC.
I think that's what makes him a great coach; admit when you're not good at something and let others do it.

Yeah I distinctly remember that as well. Do you think he has hired clock management professionals now? I knew a few teams have them.

Eagles fans will never live this down. And if they lose, oh boy.

Sorry, I had just mostly forgot about that game and it came rushing back.
It's crazy how much better Andy's clock management has gotten.

I’d thought people would pick up on it but it’s /s. Of course McNabb wasn’t the problem.

McNabb wasn't the problem, it was (forgive me) Andy Reid acting like they were only down by one score at the end of the game when they needed two.
If you went back and watched that game, it would frustrate you after watching modern time/clock management. It's part of why they let him go. His time management was bad and a big reason he wasn't considered as great as he now is.

At this point they should just give out a “Denny Kellington Trainer of the Year” Award

Sorry Mr. Patrick, the Eagles were not the better team. If they had Nick Foles over Donovan McNabb than yes.

Idk if I'd be so sure, I had seen another reddit thread pop up today about his employees recovering more money than they use for the actual charity

There might be some overlap tbh I don’t know the exact details but I just was referring to how he would constantly show up to meet with kids who have cancer and try and brighten their day even a little bit. I mean there’s like hundreds to thousands of pictures where it looks like he just got out of bed to hangout with these kids

Is this how Josh Allen got a first place vote? “He must have meant Josh Allen”. Because any other logic for the most turnovers in the NFL getting a vote make no sense.
They 100% should have created an award for this guy though.
