""If there's any ill will or bad feelings between the Jets and the Redskins, I don't think it's on the coaching level or the player level," Spurrier said. "It just seemed like they had players, free agents and restricted free agents, that filled our needs, and we had an opportunity to attempt -- which we were successful in doing -- to sign all these players. "Obviously we needed a return man -- a punt return and kickoff return guy -- and we thought Chad Morton was the best we could possibly go after. We needed a kicker, and we thought John Hall was the best. We needed a guard, and Randy Thomas was right there among the best. And then Laveranues Coles, we thought, was one of the best receivers out there. So it just happened that way. If there's some bitterness among management-level people, that's something that they need to talk about. But we have the utmost respect for Herman Edwards and the Jets' coaching staff for all they've done there with the Jets." Morton became the latest defection Monday when arbitrator Richard Bloch awarded him to the Redskins, finding that the Jets improperly matched an offer sheet last month to the restricted free agent. Jets General Manager Terry Bradway accused Redskins owner Daniel Snyder of overpaying for Thomas and Coles, and Snyder said just after Bloch's ruling he wanted to see how the Jets would "spin" the loss of Morton. The teams are scheduled to meet on Sept. 4 at FedEx Field in the opening game of the NFL season."
Heh heh heh...no hard feelin's...MUD
It's the "Lib'ral Template" that ENSLAVES the VastLeftWingMedyuhWhore'd into believing things that are demonstrably NOT TRUE!! And if you've allowed yerself to trick yer own mind into believing things that stray from verifiable reality, you cannot really add much to the conversation that will be helpful to others, so yer popularity understandably wanes and your rewards--monetary and otherwise--thereby are lessened. It's capitalism at work, EXCEPT with the BigThreeNetworks wherein a three-headed Oligarchy monopolizes America's "FRee" airwaves!!
That's why it is of UTMOST IMPORTANCE that the broadcast rights for the ABCCBSNBC are auctioned off on a regular, rotating basis, just like broadcast rights to NFL Football and Major League Baseball and NASCAR...ain't no reason the Federal Guv'ment's not doing this already except fer the FACT that they like to hold these "FRee Airwave Rights" over the heads of the Network Bigshots to BlackMail them into not straying too far from the SocialistBureaucRATicTalkinPoints!!

Thy will shall be done, my FRiend, as Educational Vouchers and the decentralization of bureaucRATic control become cornerstones of Dubyuh's push to win the Hearts and Minds of Urban America working up to the 2004 elections. Our POTUS is a lot more resolute that I figgered him fer, especially considering the way his daddy allowed hisself to git played fer the fool by the DemonRATS and Slick Willie. In fact, I'd go so far as to say a portion of Dubyuh's resolute nature derives from his not wanting to make the same mistakes his daddy made!!
I'm not sure how long it's gonna take to rid America of the heinously COUNTER-PRODUCTIVE Federal Dept. of Education, but I seriously don't believe it will survive Dubyuh's second term, as the devolution of Power from the Feds to the States to the Localities to the Parents will make it apparent to all but the most devoted Collectivists that any education solutions that retain or increase the Power presently entrusted to IvoryTowerEggheads in DeeCee are inherently COUNTER-PRODUCTIVE!!
Keep the Faith, we're on the RightPath...MUD
That's 'cuz fer Lib'rals to admit they were WRONG regarding Blair and Bush with respect to Iraq, they would be chastened for straying from the pro-Tyranny/pro-Oppression EffeteElite--and thereby anti-Dubyuh/anti-Blair mentality. Unless Blair shrinks from the Courage&Wisdom he's displayed fer the last 20 months and champions growth in the British social welfare system, I wouldn't be surprised to see Blair win re-election handily with as much Tory support as Labour.
Not gloatin's hard, I know, but this is an EXCELLENT opportunity to compassionately engage yer Lib'ral collegues and family and friends in the important--and inevitable--process of coming to grips with the reality that FReedom and Justice and Truth are the Righteous Path to take, and all the hucksters promising them a SocialistUtopia are but scamming to steal away their money and their self-autonomy.

Now, this post contains some of the best advice and wisdom ever to pour off the keyboard of the revered Landru.
Now, while I am thinking about it, I may just go and drink that last Moxie that sits in my fridge. Oh yes! The best drink ever made on earth and soooo hard to find. I think if I ever do get involved in another of Mudboy Slim's sucker bets, I will insist that a case of Moxie be part of my winnings. It couldn't be any harder to come by then, say, a limosine ride to the Hotel Jefferson.
By the way....'Dru.....FBD tells me you are in marketing....I'm a marketing manager
The dude is asking for it, isn't he?
