Nobody remembers Bill Bilichick ? His age notwithstanding, his skills and football knowledge transcended anything negative about him. If he is mentally young enough to be with his girlfriend his granddaughter's age, he should be able to handle UCLA football.

I am, of course, saying it tongue in cheek. But he is worth a try.

..except he is now being lead around with his nose ring by 25-year-old that hottie he's stapled at the hips to.

Hey bro, if he is indeed one of our targets ( of course he isn't, LOL !!! ), just gimme a chance to approach him one on one. The girl problem is easy. Nothing cannot be done by the stroke of a pen. " Have fun honey, I got to go " That's it !!

Tour de Force article, Dimitri. (Per usual.) Thank you for laying out the [mine]field we are traipsing across.*

Cannot improve on this in anyway, not that I would. But, some nights I will wake up screaming as we relive the Kelly hiring and the search:

(1) Keep Troy Aikman as far away from the selection process as possible. Someone start a fund to purchase him an around-the-world cruise lasting through next March.

(2) The Fetus will screw this up by trying to gloss over his incompetence and we will end up with someone from your "bad pile" and enter into a "Chipster II" 35-35 half decade. He will then sashay off to Ohio State as Assistant AD or publicity boss or toilet attendant or something.

To tell the truth, I am praying that Chancellor Frenk will get some of the old Miami juices flowing and start wielding the scythe mercilessly!

OK, two Nembutal and another run at an afternoon nap!

Epic Planner. Epic.

Reading various websites this morning the consensus is that our “athletic director” should not be involved in the hiring process for a new coach. Rhetorical question: why is the guy still employed?
