    That was a good read, but then what the hell do football managers know? Aren't those the guys that you players snapped with towels, stuffed in lockers, and generally abused? :D

    Thanks, Corey. I needed that! We all need that. Great read for a guy starved for foxhole comrades.

    Terry, quite the contrary re: managers. They are the guys you treated with the utmost respect and appreciation, because they are the future corporate CEOs that the someday players may be working under. There was a young manager during Brian's time there - can't recall his name - whose dad was a very high ranking politician in California and by reputation very wealthy. Very nice young man. In that same group of managers was the son of a classmate/friend who was and is a successful sports agent with some recognizable names in his fold. Given these two examples, I think you can see what I'm talking about. :wink:
