    Every time I picked you, you lost. Every time I picked against you, you won. Keep these guys off of contests! :evil:

    I feel....

    <t>For Larry Coker. How would you like to have to wake up today and have one of the real nimrods of our time Donna Shalala deciding your fate? It's a good thing the man is well paid.</t>

    Why do the post-game interview chicks always feel that they have to pretend to be investigative journalists.

    For those who missed it, after the game she peppered him with questions about his job security and when would he meet with Donna and yada, yada, yada.

    All the poor guy wanted to talk about was his kids and the game, but she kept blowing that off and trying to make him say something "interesting" about his possible firing.

    It was really obnoxious.

    Tom, I picked them right this time!

    Stu, I saw that interview and it was truly classless. Here the players had a big picture of Brian Pata on the field with all them gathered around saying prayers or spending time with their thoughts, and this woman only wanted to ask Coker about whether or not he was going to be fired, whether they would go to a bowl and what he would tell recruits.

    I thought Coker handled it very well but this woman doing the interviewing was classless.

    Personally I think Coker deserves to be kept on as the coach, but as Larry said his fate is in the hands of someone I wouldn't want to be making the decision about my fate.

    Bill,

    I guess it is a moot question at this point.

    :?
    Coker gone, Shalala still clueless, female sideline reporters still bad and the entire situation at Miami continues to slide downhill. I hope the new coach won't be expected to win with real students...

    Barry Alvarez and Donna will be together again. Alvarez can coach but I have to wonder if he's really up to the job and the energy it takes to put things back together again.
