Quote:LOL! Leave it to you to try and rewrite history. Not only was he in charge of all the ground forces Pacific theater in WWII, he was also made the Supreme Allied Commander of the country of Japan in the post war era and following that was also made commander of all UN forces in the Korean war.

 

So he was a successful CO of the largest theater in WWII, the CO for 5 years of occupation and rebuild of a nation that would experience the greatest economic boom in history, and the CO of the largest UN action in history.

 

Regardless of your ignorant opinion, MacArthur is widely considered one of the greatest COs of the 20th century by both his contemporaries and historians and absolutely nothing you can say will change that fact.
 

You're entitled to your opinion on McArthur. Mine is different. That's not pertinent to the topic.


 

But my main point stands. Gus keeps rushing the passer with just four players, as if he had the 2012 Seahawks roster.


 

The whole "buck stops here" comment was not meant to claim that being a head coach is remotely equivalent to being President; it was to point out that if the stupid decisions made in running the defense were from Babich (or any other coach under Gus) then Gus is still ultimately responsible for the end result
.* Gus chose Babich. Gus chose to keep Babich when he fired Fisch. Gus has the power to overrule Babich.

 

* At least that's how I would have meant it, I didn't make the original comment.
