So, the reporter finally did what we all wanted him to do. He pestered Marinelli endlessly saying "stop talking about you I want to know about the def. coordinator and why he's still employed, etc.." I thought it was great because these people are allowed to dodge questions so easily.

Anyways, Marinelli still never responded about the def. coordinator and at the end of the interview the reporter that something fucking stupid about Rod and whatever his relationship is with someone's daughter (sorry don't follow the Lions Bob can clue us in) totally tarnishing the fact that this guy actually stood up and demanded a coach give the world a straight-forward answer.
Marinelli's daughter is married to the defensive coordinator, Joe Barry. What happened was the reported (Rob Parker) asked Marinelli if he wished that his daughter had married a better defensive coordiator.

Marinelli is a terrible football coach but he has accepted all the blame for the Lions' situation. For a reporter to go after his family during a public press conference is totally fucking ridiculous.

Most of you probably don't know Rob Parker by name but would probably recognize him if you saw him because he's a frequent guest on ESPN's First Take (one of the guys that debates Skip Bayless). Basically he's a huge racist deucebag with a track record. I certainly hope he loses his job at the Detroit News for this latest incident.

Here's the OT video:
