EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The New York Giants fired offensive line coach Marc Colombo following a nasty verbal confrontation with head coach Joe Judge and are replacing him with longtime NFL assistant Dave DeGuglielmo, sources told ESPN on Wednesday.

NFL Network was first to report Colombo's firing.

The Giants were hiring DeGuglielmo as a consultant prior to the moves. When Colombo was told of the plan by Judge on Tuesday night, it did not go down well.

Colombo did not agree with the move and felt that he was being undermined, a source told ESPN, due to DeGuglielmo's background as an offensive line coach.

Although there was plenty of name-calling, Colombo and Judge did not get into a fistfight, as one report indicated. A Giants spokesperson said the report of a physical altercation is "absolutely false in every way."

The move to fire Colombo was a surprise considering the Giants offensive line has shown improvement in recent weeks. They have rushed for more than 150 yards in each of their past three games.

Player-coach? He's only 42!

Also if you fuck someone like they are a millionaire they might go try to be one.

I remember watching the 2002 Monday Nite Football game when his career as a Bear ended before it even began.

Are you stoned or pissed off, or both, when you create these postings?

I immediately thought that might have been the Aldon Smith beat down, but that was a different pathetic Bears O-lineman.
