    You have to fault Huizenga signing a contract that allows Saban to leave with no financial penalty.

    I wonder if Jim Bates will get an interview. I remember that Monday night game a few years back when they beat the Patriots when Bates was the interim guy...

    DID NO ONE catch the comment Huzienga made about seeking the input from those in the room (IE, media) about how Wayne's World can be a winning world? Sheesh. A megabillionaire asking writers for help?

    But on the other hand, complimentary, I guess.

    My thoughts exactly. Even the joke about needing a bigger room for press conference the moment he stepped to the mic, he seemed like a class guy. He deserves a coach with far more class than Saban.

    He did a great job with that high school team in the Nike commercial.

    Lets remember that both times that Huizenga did a "real" coaching search (I'm not counting when he hired Wannstedt), he got the most-sought after and highly regarded guy available -- Jimmy Johnson and Nick Saban. I'm not sure who the stud candidate is this time around (probably Carroll or Weis), but look for Wayne to go at them hard.

    But in every state but Alabama, he's dead.

    What a great owner. He bought a World Series, then dismantled the team before the engraving was done after Miami-Dade refused to be held hostage.

    Yeah, what a guy.

    He also sued and ran out of business a tiny pizza store owner several years ago, claiming that "Clockbusters Pizza" was an infringement on his Blockbuster Video name.

    Particularly considering he had that coach-killer Michael Vick on the team.

    Why? Linehan's an offensive coach and Miami's offense is rather lackluster.
