So Kyle Shanahan said in his press conference today he needed closers. Since I was having a slow day at work, my next thought was the epic scene from Glengarry Glen Ross.
I can see Shanahan walking into the coaches meeting and Saleh walking over to get a cup of coffee and Shanahan saying the epic line: “Put that coffee DOWN. Coffee is for closers only.”
If anyone else had that scene playing after hearing Shanahan’s presser, let me know so I’m not crazy. I have some links for you:
