Whatever it takes

you got BIG dreams

maybe you could give him Palo Alto (nobody would notice if it was missing)

an while we’re on the coaching-go-round

I was thinking Cowher was going to NY, but it’s not so, apparently

if I was Shannahan, I’d be singing about “those little town blues, … melting away …”

I bet Jerry Jones regrets giving Wade Phillips a vote of confidence yesterday, cuz shannahan could make a winner out of Romo (but then again, they ALWAYS say they got “complete faith” in you right before they throw you under the bus) wanna bet Wade is nervous in the service …

and the NFL is probably gonna have to find a judge willing to sentence two random assistant coaches to serve as head coaches in detroit an cleveland

and here’s some extra TMI, just because …

the funniest opening of any article I ever read, was in the 1987 Sports Illustrated baseball preview issue about why the indians were the favorites that year:

Something is happening in Cleveland.

What, The river is on fire again ???

I still can’t see, say or hear the word “Cleveland” without laughing

Back up a Brinks truck, make him the GM, promise daughters and private jets. Whatever it takes.</p> No. It is only a hope.
