light maybe monday shed sure
I'm sure there will be some light shed on that. And I think they're going to do that maybe Monday afternoon. So we'll see after that.
active begin less load love room sure teams therefore
I'm sure there are teams that have room and therefore will be active but I think there will be less activity. There are a lot of teams that won't have room. We'd love to front-load, back-load, do-whatever load but we can't begin to load. We don't have any place to put it.
coaches offensive sure voted
I'm not going to say the offensive coaches voted it down. We'll be back at it. . . . I'm sure it will be back.
green holiday inn remember sitting wherever
Because I remember Saturdays sitting in my dad's room, and we'd be at the one-story Holiday Inn in Green Bay, or wherever we were, saying, 'It's going to be ugly.'

At some point there has to be a line.

The system will not be designed, the way we propose it, to be put on more than one player.
certainly driving palmer
I don't know that the Palmer play was the driving force, but it was certainly a force.
Let me get through the weekend. Right now I just don't know.

Seventy-six? Seventy-six was the longest 17 years of my life,

We want to make sure they actually see the foul.

There were not many days in recent years when he didn't wear his USC sweatshirt,
basis decisions easier fit four good job mind popular sign three tougher veteran
It's made the (GM) job tougher and more unpopular. Because the easier way to go is to sign the popular veteran that's really a good fit in your marketplace, but not a good fit in your salary-cap management. In my mind you make at least three or four of those decisions on a yearly basis now. You used to have one of those, at most, every two or three years.
