"Hue Jackson fired?  By gum, I know that name from somewhere!  My tight end at Dartmouth?  My great granddaughter's dressage coach?  The old Gatorade rep who used to call on us at PBS and was running a dice game on concourse C during games?  Was Hue Jackson the name of the neighbor's Spaniel when I was a boy back in the '40s?"  Prolific grunting while adjusting buckles and straps on circa 1963 truss  "Hue Jackson, Hue Jackson, is that a pudding pop flavor I used to buy for the boys at the A&P?  Is Hue Jackson my address?  My name?  An offering on the early bird menu at Frisch's?  I remember!  Hue Jackson is a play dad used to call back in Massillon!  4th and 1 on their 30, call the old Hue Jackson!  Works every time!" Coughing fit strikes, collapses on the davenport.

Hue Jackson over that only winning three games in that era will never be hired as a head coach. As far as anybody is concerned.

Yeah he's done as a HC.  UNLESS...Marvin brings him back here, retires after the season, and has MB hire him as the new HC.  Don't be surprised.

Bringing Marvin Lewis back as HC blew me out off the water, so yeah. Nothing would surprise me now.

"Dierdre, take a letter."  Begins dictating:

 

"Dear Ken Petet,

Good morning Ken, hope all's well well with your mother.  As you know, your little act where you tie those monkeys to the backs of dogs and let them run around on our football field is about the best entertainment we've had at halftime since we used to spend big money to get Up With People in here back in '68.  

I've got a proposition I think you're going to like.  It just so happens our fans love a good ol' tug of war.  This has been demonstrated, and it's an undeniable fact.  

Now listen here, you duct tape those monkeys hands to the end of a rope, and put the dogs on the other end.  Won't need to train the dogs, they just love to pull a rope naturally.  My brother Pete had his shoulder dislocated by my dad's dachshund some years back.  Wasn't a miniature dachshund, just a regular one.  That dog just loved to pull a rope.

Anyway, my crowd would love it.  Tape the monkeys to one end, let the dogs drag them around the field by the other end of the rope, we'll play some circus sounding music, we almost can't miss with this one.

I know what you're thinking, 'where am I going to find a legitimate tug of war rope?'  Just so happens I've got one.  And here's where it gets interesting.  You take this show on the road with you, I lease you the rope.  Either a flat fee, or I take a percentage, doesn't really matter to me.  Of course, we fold the performance at our place into the lease contract.  I'll pay you a small fee, like a hundred bucks.  You use our rope, see how successful the act is, then take it out on the county fair and minor league baseball circuit.  

Let me know when we can get going on this one.  My fans can't wait to see your new dog monkey tug of war Extravaganza!

Truly yours,

Mike Brown"

"Dierdre, did you get all that?"

 

Caregiver from At Home Instead says, "Mr. Brown, we're at your breakfast table.  We don't go into your office until 11 today.  Do you want your other slippers?"

“Katie? Did you decide on that new coach, yet?”

“Yeah, Dad.  I want Zac.”

“What? What for? Awful young and wet behind the ears.  What would grandpappy Paul say?”

“Well... you know Dad I got a thing for sandy blondes and... well... it’s not that I don’t love Troy but he’s older now and it would just warm me up to be able to check out Zac everyday.  Rev my little engine a bit, Dad. Like a strong cup of coffee.”

“Ah, Katie, you can have whatever you like, pumpkins. You must got some of that horndog gene in you from your dear mother.  My Lord almighty, I couldn’t keep her off me no matter how hard I tried.  I sought the Good Lord in prayer just for a moment of time to swig another viagra tonic, ... even He couldn’t squelch that woman’s starburning fire out!”

“Great googly moogly!  March 25th is here already!  Every year I sign a 9th rounder on this exact day, then have him clean out the gutters!  Deirdre!  Bring me all my 3 ring binders!”

"That Adam Jones, i'll tell you what.  Now THAT'S an outstanding young man.  I'd have a whole team of him if I could manage."

"What's that ??  He did what ??  Can't be.  Why I'm sure he was home with his pretty wife cutting the lawn or trimming the boxwoods."

"He always was had meticulous attention to detail.  Well, see if we can get him back in our outfit, things haven't been the same since he left."

"The AAF is folding up?  Great googly moogly, Marvin's announcing job is kaput! 

We'll fit him back in, let's see, 'Special Assistant to the Director of Personnel'?  'Football Operations Quality Control Auditor'?  'League Liaison for Veteran Players Affairs'?  Wait, I've got it!  'Director of College Scouting and Consultant to the GM If We Had One."  Perfect.  Welcome back Marvin!
