When a team struggles like the Minnesota Vikings have this year a coach like Mike Zimmer gets a lot of heat for the way the team is performing. His daughter Corri has had enough of the criticism and took to Instagram to defend her dad, even revealing that her dad has lost 16 pounds because of the stress he has been under this year.

“He works his ASS off to find a way to WIN for all these so called ‘fans’ that tear him apart. I’ve seen it all today to making fun of his appearance to judging every move he makes and it makes me sick to my stomach. If you don’t appreciate and can’t recognize everything he’s done for this team then you are no fan. These people get behind their keyboards and write heartless comments and i know for a fact that they have never worked as hard as he has ONE day in their life. This man is one of the greatest COACHES, FATHER, HUSBAND, FRIEND, and PERSON in the world. He is the right leader for this team and he will get it turned around. … Think before you comment, think of who could be reading it, and look in the mirror before you judge someone else.”
