But I think the way Paul has worked, being the commissioner surrounded by a strong staff, has obviously been successful. To me, that's the model, but I also think it's important we listen to the ideas and make sure everyone's voices are heard on the issue.
I don't put any significant amount on one or the other. We've got everything done, labor, television; Paul, obviously, he feels he's taken it as far as he can. So let's let the process go forward and hear what everybody has to say, but I do think it is one job with a strong support system around it.
We're not just going to jump out there because somebody says we should.
To go out and win this game would be a great step in the right direction for this whole organization.
We're playing on the road, in Kansas City, on a Thursday. Playing Pittsburgh on the opening Thursday would be a great game, but we don't need two of them.
I think we'll get somebody that will keep our game, our league, as the best thing going. I think we can find the right guy.
I was very interested in seeing that change take place. Over the last 30-odd years that we've had Monday Night Football , the culture has changed in America. Monday night is not the same kind of night that it was in the '70s and '80s. People aren't at home. Sunday night is really when you find most people at home.
I was here the last time around with the Coliseum, so I'm not real optimistic about the Los Angeles Coliseum.
I would like Mike to coach out his career here. What's left on his contract or not left on his contract is not the issue. I think Mike is at the top of the coaching ladder and I think he'll stay there. So there's no reason for me to be thinking about changing head coaches. That thought never crosses my mind, and I don't think it ever will.
We haven't had the success we had hoped to achieve. Josh McDaniels is the head coach of the Broncos and you always strive for stability at that position. However, with five games left in the 2010 season, we will continue to monitor the progress of the team and evaluate what's in the best interest of this franchise.
I'm holding my breath here. I think we've just got to take our time and make sure everybody's opinions are heard so you don't get into a contentious situation.
I think there's a possibility. I don't know if there's a real possibility.
I don't run the triathlons anymore like I used to. I do leg work on the machines and do the bike. I'm not as strong as I used to be, but I'm still good.
I have short-term memory loss. I know that some of the memories of the Super Bowl championships are fading.
