[quote name="PURPLE 4EVER" post="1148187" timestamp="1324216237"] I was also one of the 49,953.  That was my first and last time in Texas Stadium.  If you were sitting in the shade in December, TALK ABOUT FREEZING!! [b] IMO, one of the worst designed stadiums ever, it was like a poor man's Astrodome.[/b] [/quote] I agree 100%!!! Terrible!

[quote name="CATMAN" post="1148104" timestamp="1324177925"] he is a very or was a good coach,obviously there are some issues that this guy has, there is a difference between how good of a coach someone is and what kind of person they are, we see that in all sports and all levels [/quote] I am still not sold on him being a very good coach like some are claiming. One thing that is been obvious about this guy, he has never stayed in one place longer than 4 years. He has bounced around everywhere!! About 8 different coaching jobs in the past 15 years!
