Us being SMU and all, what are the chances he's just scattershooting while wondering whatever happened to Eric Hipple vs something's rotten in Denmark?

"In pro sports, college athletics, management must speak with one voice. The chain of command must run from players to coach, from coach to manager, from manager to owner or AD. When it doesn't, management itself becomes a peripheral opponent to the team's Mission."

Yikes, maybe things aren't all peachy on the Hilltop between Orsini, Diamond Club etc? I bet he's either getting pressure from above to do something he doesn't want to do, or is having trouble conveying the same message to the players throughout the staff.

Maybe Willis knew something we didnt? Haha Just Kidding, please no one respond to that.

Maybe he wrote that because things are going well and everyone is speaking from one voice. Since they were not at Hawaii.

He seemed pretty effusive in his praise of Orisini on Monday for his handling of Shawnbrey. Did I hear that wrong?

Sounds like someone put something in his coffee. The problem with twitter is that all of the sudden everyone thinks they're philosopher and thinks they have to wax poetic or share their wisdom. As I recall on a bathroom stall once. "He who writes on these bathroom walls rolls his ....t into little balls, and everyone who reads these words of wit, eats those little balls of ....t." Twitter has become the new bathroom wall. Just remember to call Jenny at 8675309.

Jones's ramblings are evidence of thetan activity. I will have to check his account balance to see if he can be cleared by Saturday.

I think it may have more to do with Monday night's double header that included the Raiders and the Patriots (seperate games), but the Alpha and Omega of sports management. Or worse he could have listened to Jordan's egomanical acceptance speech when he referred to the Bull's management.

Who was that labor economics professor who was a bit daft? I remember one nice spring day he went to the classroom window stared out for a few minutes and proclaims: "First day of spring, I can hear the birds chirping and when the administrators go underneath, they know what to do."
