Jones won't let the new coach get rid of TO - TO is Jones' boy, and that makes me happy as it means the Cowboys won't win anything anytime soon!

a year too late...they could've had Sean Payton.

Bellechick sure got his sourpus act down pat from his mentor. I respect the guy as a coach and really respect him as a person away from the football field but his attitude on it and it around it sucks. Same for Parcells.

Will be interesting to see which direction Jones goes in. Jimmy Johnson is available...lol.

Sure, Bill is a really crusty, but he was warm with Dungy after the loss. You can't tell me Coach Skeletor, errr, Shanahan is warm and cuddly.

I'm referring more to his raport with the media. Ratface, while we're throwing out Shanahan monikers, is always gracious in defeat as BB was yesterday to Coach Dungy. A little better with the media though.

You got me thinking that Head Coach in the NFL must be one of the most stressful jobs in sports. Cowher always seems like his head is about to explode. Parcells seems to be in great pain all of the time. Gruden is wound so tight I fear he will have a hear attack at any moment.

No kidding.

Look at the coaches in the NHL, most of them are laid back behind the bench. MLB managers and coaches, half asleep (except for Leo Mazzone).
