Yeah I knew that.

Just wondering if the ownership has some sort of gambing debts they need to pay off or what?

 

[Rampage]

wow! that is just terrible

If that happened in Dallas there would be a huge backlash against JJ. Unbelievable story.

They should look to the history of Jerry when you lowball coaches...

It really is a shame as Lovie wants to be our coach and it didn't work out for him by a mere year...

Sometimes bad things happen to good people...

Who has jerry lowballed that deserved more money, Campo, Gailey, Switzer, none of which deserve a big contract at the time of their signing.
