    There it is.

    The more interesting news will be how the rest of the coaching staff will be filled.

    Bingo!


    Anyone remember the stink when it came to light that KC Jones was actually doing the coaching on that team? I think. Unless my memory gland is ruptured...

    I want to hear who he will bring in as assistants before I let him off the hook... I would have been a wee bit happier with Casey... because like I said... I never liked McHale's "analysis" on television.
