Watch the Cowboys pick up Rivera.

I wish the Steelers *had* waited to talk to Rivera. I'm not high on
Tomlin
-- mostly from the Vikings' defense statistics. I thought that
Rivera was a good candidate, but it's gonna be another two weeks.

I guess I'd take new blood (Tomlin) over a Cowher clone (Grimm). The
Cowboys can get the clone -- he'd actually be a pretty good fit in Dallas.

--Shit, when I read about Parcells retiring, I immediately thought to

wins or loses the Superbowl. DAMMMIITTTTT!!!!!!!!1

Maybe you should apply for a job in the Steelers front office:

Pittsburgh Steelers
100 Art Rooney Avenue
Pittsburgh, PA 15212

Hope it helps.

Then go be a cokehead fan if you think they are so much smarter than the
Steelers.

The rumour is that the Cowboys might be actually
interested in Cowher.

The important thing for us is that Tomlin has his
coaches in place this week for the Senior Bowl.
That is where/when all the smoke filled back room
wrangling gets done for players and coaches.

For the record I was in favor of Mean Joe over
Cowher or Wannstedt.
