Interesting that Marv clearly still has the fire to be head coach given so many others coming back , why not Marv.......

I alluded to branch ricky giving Jackie Robinson a opportunity and when Robinson at first had difficulty , Ricky still supported him and gave him time to work things out , what ricky new was that more than it was right for Black players play in major leagues, there were many fine black players who could play in major leagues , making our national game a better game. He stood alone in doing so and all in time benifited. Similarly with Notre Dame one the the nations most outstanding schools, they had opportunityto do the same in football regarding coaching, to give a man similar opportunity, give him the necessary support , in him having success the door being opening to many more black coaches where it isnt today, pointing to a time when all are truely given opportunity for there skill only. What is in it for Notre Dame in making such a stand is in facilitating opportunity for all and consequently more skillful coaches making the game better, just as when finally baseball started to become a game with opportunity for all.

But they could be part of the solution..........

It had much to do with a Black man getting a opportunity at a major school , the hiring at the time was given much aclaim as such at the time it was a example of a major school standing up doing right both in its stand on academics and opportunity for all , Notre Dame taking a lead in these most important aspects that just maybe other schools might follow. Much hand wringing has been done over the past number of years over the undue amount of import that sport play in our academic facilites. Its going to take the major football schools to make a stand on the import of education over sport to get this system under control , they had opportunity to stand for something that builds our culture, rather than conceed and become like the other football factories where winning come before academics and charactor. Three years into a program that those previous had got five is not the same opportunity. Hardly him given the full opportunity his contract was signed for is token anything. That there are only two black head coaches in major college football is shameful.

Jim Rome just said that Marv Levy will be on his show in studio to talk Bills and his career between 1:00 pm - 2:00pm

Is it possible Tom Donahoe will just retain his Presidents position and Tom Modrak will become the General Manager.....?

I really think Notre Dame has lost an opportunity. Now with Herm being fired there does remain only two black head coaches at the highest college level. Notre Dame commendably stands for high standards of academics over athletic success first and with hiring made a stand to give equal opportunity at the highest levels. I can only imagine how baseball would be today if when Jackie Robinson first cam up to the big leagues and was faltering, Branch Ricky had not supported him and believed in him. Apart from greed and winning on the field first I don’t see another reason for firing Herm three seasons into a five year contract that others before him with given full opportunity, Herm deserved full opportunity and college football does suffer as consequence. It’s sad a major school did do what was right but did not have the gumption to stick with it.

The University of Notre Dame has announced that Tyrone Willingham will not be retained as coach Tyrone Willingham

could be Ice , but Mort made the distinction today that he was fired as opposed to resigned, as noted they are very different in nature in terms of obligations.

Butch Davis has been fired as coach of the Cleveland Browns, ESPN's Chris Mortensen is reporting. Davis, whose teams went 24-36 overall in three-plus seasons, met with team owner Randy Lerner on Monday night and was told of thBe decision, according to Mortensen. Butch Davis what on earth are players doing helping decide who will coach.........

It would be nice that peace were at hand but the battle of Drew and Losman is really just started now that Drew looks like he may just put up a fight.......

Mike is improving steadily under coach Mcnally's fine coaching. Absolute disgraceful nonsense factoring into the mix of declaring him being unprofessional how he handled a death, the most personal of privite matters. Not to many people have been with Mike during his struggle many wishing to give him the bums rush during his most down of times, good for him things seem to be turning the corner.

if a quarterback is what they seek, California's Aaron Rodgers and USC's Matt Leinart will likely be available. Though neither has given indications on the draft, both are early favorites for the No. 1 slot, and both are expected to forgo their senior seasons for the NFL. While certainly talented, Rodgers' stature (6-2, 200 lbs.) is slightly less than desired, and there is a theory that Leinart's productivity has been somewhat inflated by his surrounding talent. For sure, neither has drawn the "certain superstar" tag slapped on Manning before he even began his final college season. Which places the core issue between the lines of a paycheck. Should the top pick be either Rodgers or Leinart, they are going to come with a hefty price tag. That means somewhere in the neighborhood of $20-$25 million in guaranteed "Manning Money" to someone not named Peyton or Eli. A daunting number for the frugal ways of a salary cap-strapped San Francisco ownership, not to mention the Dolphins, who forked over a second-round pick and a five-year, $18 million contract for Feeley last offseason.

It appears that way there is no obvious franchise saving player out there, its tough for the Fish and 49 ers because they need a quarterback. I light of that remembering the decision by Bills looks much wiser . There has been much hand wringing about not having a first round pick, its very possible many teams will be wanting to find ways to get out of the first round

In almost any other year, the bright side of Sunday's Futility Bowl – Miami (1-9) vs. San Francisco (1-9) – would be painful progress toward a building block. Loser takes another step toward locking up the No. 1 pick in the April draft, and assures a piece of the next foundation. But it's not that kind of year. Instead, being the biggest loser this season seems to extend to the charity cup, too. The previews of the 2005 draft can't be completed yet, since a slew of underclassmen have yet to declare, but circumstances are pointing to this being a poor year to own the No. 1 pick. A handful of scouts and executives contacted this week refused even rudimentary dissection of the draft without knowing who would be available. But a few gave credence to the likelihood there will be no mega-star lock at the top of the draft. - just maybe as things play out , Mr. Donahoes decisions will look much better.....

Have a nice day everyone, and remember to make some time for someone alone

I would be a privilege, a table of Rockpile, Fezmid, Alaska Darin, Lancaster Steve, AKC because they are all fine people...

It is disgraceful that this man was not at least suspended for a period of time and only allowed back on air when he was ready to give a proper apology. Such statements are repugnant from bongo Congo to medicine hat, liberal, conservative or in between, that he utters them on a small market station do not make the comments any less, plant the seeds of hate in two and they become four, in four they become eight, it is not a small thing to be respectful to each other.

Happy Birthday Anmarie , hope you have had a special day

A 13-year old Virginia Beach boy is being held at the Virginia Beach Detention Center after police say he abducted an exotic dancer last Tuesday night. The woman noticed the client was a juvenile, but was told that the contract was for his older brother. Police say the woman waited for a while, but no one else showed up. Authorities say when the woman eventually tried to leave the residence, she was stopped by the juvenile who pointed a shotgun at her and ordered her to dance. exotic dancer and 13 year old boy...

Great to see Mike start to see some success this season . How big of so many of you to forgive him for shirking his responsibilities while he grieved.
