Joe Gibbs Objects to Beer? What's He Doing in the NFL?
Published 5/13/2007 by Michael David Smith at FanHouse
... Joe Gibbs makes $6 million a year as an NFL head coach. He also owns a NASCAR team. That team has said it might not want to sign Dale Earnhardt Jr. because of Earnhardt's sponsorship deal with Anheuser-Busch . Something isn't right here. Does Gibbs have any idea where the Washington Redskins get the money to pay his salary? Does he not understand that beer commercials on television and beer concessions at games put many millions of dollars into the NFL's coffers, and that the millions of dollars in his own bank account are soaked in beer? Gibbs wouldn't have the money to own his own NASCAR team if the NFL weren't such a profitable endeavor, and the NFL wouldn't be such a profitable endeavor without alcohol. If Gibbs doesn't want to make money off alcohol, there's only one honorable thing for him to do: Resign from the Redskins.
