When I left a couple of weeks ago, I asked you all to keep things under control. I said that I hoped to return to find Rogers and Cambpell signed to deals that they still liked and to find that the Rod Gardner situation had been resolved.

You got none of that done. AND you allowed "My Favorite Meathead" to go and start a meaningful relationship with the gendarmes in Florida.

When Taylor steps on the field for the first time this year, I want the stadium DJ to play the theme from Cops. "Bad Boy ... Bad boy .. Wha'cha gonna do when they come for you..."

I had a great time in Italy and Sicily. I doubt seriously that I will get the consulting gig that would allow me to go there about 4 or 5 times in the next two years at someone else's expense (chances are about 1 in 100) but I might get a sub-contract deal with whomever gets the big piece of cheese in this deal...
