He knew what he was doing. It's a letdown, but we move forward.

He's extremely intelligent. Things just click with him, whether you're talking about crossword puzzles or football. He's the type of guy that can skip class for three weeks, then go in on the day of the test and do well.

He's got to make his next move work. He knows he's in a bottom-line business, and the last 4 1/2 years, we haven't been winning.

My first preference would be to test the market, without closing the door on coming back. I feel I have earned the opportunity to explore my options.

What we've been through the last four years makes me sick. Everybody around here calls me 'Grumpy,' and I've become that way as a direct result of our record since I've been here.
