If you’ve read my Commercial Grade blog then you know how I feel about beer commercials.  If you haven’t, immediately click this link, bookmark the page, and send it to everyone you’ve ever met and even any creepy internet stalker friends you might have.

Coors Light ads are usually pretty annoying.  They had a good run with their NFL coach press conference spoofs for a couple of years (including one with former Colts and Saints coach Jim Mora), but they eventually overdid it and the commercials became unfunny.

As we head into what promises to be a fascinating Conference Championship Sunday, I can’t help but reflect on the funniest greatest moments in the illustrious YouTube NFL coaching career of Jim Mora.

Wait…what?

That’s right folks, Jim Mora is a name that you might hear more than once this weekend, and I’m not talking about the dude recently canned by the Seahawks. I’m talking about his infamous dad.

Jim Mora Sr. is a head coaching alumnus of both the New Orleans Saints and Indianapolis Colts, two offensive-minded teams playing home games who could very well be on a crash course for the Super Bowl.

He is also the most unintentionally hilarious head coach in the history of the NFL, and this is Midwest Sports Fans’ ode to the incomparable Jim Mora, inspired by the unearthing of yet another f–king terrific video featuring a Mora rant.

Browns Fans: Feel Like Throwing Up A Little In Your Mouth?

Just came across Mike Florio’s recent 10-Pack at SportingNews.com.

In this week’s edition he analyzes the ten immediate actions that Mike Holmgren should take in his effort to turn around the Browns. While most of the suggestions are fairly solid and well-reasoned (especially the “Pay Josh Cribbs” one!), this one almost made me fall out of my chair:

Under the heading “Hire Mangini’s Replacement” Florida writes the following:

One obvious candidate is Jim Mora, who might be out in Seattle, depending on who the team’s next general manager is.

If Holmgren hopes to have an active role in the Xs and Os, Jim Zorn makes sense, too. He has experience in the top job, and he’d surely defer to any guidance or suggestions Holmgren might make.

Of course, if Holmgren really wants to get involved, he can coach the team himself, something he has not yet ruled out.

Yes, like many other Browns fans reading this, I threw up a little bit in my mouth when I read that.
