Petrino resigns

Petrino resigns from the falcons and accepts the head job at Arkansas. That didn't take long.

I got a gift basket from Paul's today, and the delivery girl told me that Paul's sent an order of 500 gift baskets to Arkansas yesterday!

Coincidence?

Absolutely classic Petrino behaviour. I'm sure he denied as recently as today that he had full intent of completing his career at the Falcons.

Actually he last said that at 6pm last night. At least that's what the news channels said.

Of course the AD at Arkansas said they startying recruiting on November 26.

Unbelievable. What a jerk. I was just watching Arthur Blank last Sunday night on ESPN stating how he was standing by his coach despite his then 3-9 record. Way to reward your boss's loyalty Bobby.

I'm surprised he wasn't on his cell phone talking to Arkansas when he walked into the media room after his loss to New Orleans. I could imagine that conversation.......

"No, I'll be there first thing tomorrow morning. I'll call you back, I have to go on T.V. and proclaim my forever loyalty for Utah State...no, Louisvil...nope.....wait a second...starts with an A.....hope I don't say Arkansas on T.V. Arizona? Alabama? What? I'm in Atlanta? That's right! Atlanta! Anyway, I'll see you tomorrow in Akron! What? Ooops, sorry. I mean Arkansas. I'm really happy to be a roosterback. What? Yeah, Razorback, whatever. See you tomorrow."

I'm thinking about sending him an atlas for Christmas

Complete agree. Has no interest in the truth or decency. I was sorry to see Michael Vick leave because I thought it would be interesting to see how that would have gone.

Him and the Mayor make a good team....Full of broken promises....

That was a hoot, Ed!

Robert, you can turn into thread into something about the Mayor or chain restaurants. A wee bit obsessive are we?

They do make a good team...Both should open a place to eat called....Bait and Switch...

Have to come up with a more original one than that, Robert. That one has already been taken by:


Landry's>>>>>>>Joe's Bait Shack

Let's not forget that this man took the Louisville Cardinals' football team to unprecedented heights and also resurrected Chris Redman's NFL career...

And, as we know, excellence in sports overrides all character flaws.

But the Real question is,

Will Louisville be able to schedule another SEC team?

How big of a game would UofL vs. Arkansas be?

It makes a great story and an even better T.V. game...Some one get on the phone to Tom Jurich to make this happen next season...I think they still have an open date....
