Is this SERIOUS?

i think we'll have to agree to disagree then, because i think the pressure of being an nfl coach is pretty similar everywhere. remember, denver has a pretty proud tradition as well, with more recent superbowl victories than the skins.

I don't disagree it is similar everywhere. Being an NFL coach is a high pressure job regardless. But Denver has 2.5 million people. DC has 5.5 million + Baltimore has almost 3 million + Richmond has 1.3 million + the South is filled with Skins fans from years when they had no teams there. It doesn't mean it's "better," but it does mean more scrutiny and more eyeballs are watching you.

I can see it. Montreal is pretty close for the NHL.

Gotta imagine it is. I almost mentioned that above. Gotta imagine Toronto and Montreal are some of the toughest places to coach in the NHL.

Goodness gracious this wasn't the direction I saw this thread going. Not intended to bash on DC fans at all.
