| Kill: But Don’t Make a Cell
Phone Call
2/25/04
Joe Horn’s cell phone antics last week
which led to a redux of Terrell Owen’s commercial for

"incident" made headlines and received

the coverage he has received regarding his abhorrent
behaviors and problems has become our national family
member and we in turn are having a wide range of our own
emotional responses...more |

| Bill
Parcells and The Tampa Bay Fiasco?
2002
Anyone who was surprised by Bill
Parcell's decision not to return to coaching did not take into account
at least two long standing psychological principles that have been
well established by psychological research. These principles are: the

individual personality traits exhibited in one situation, are not
necessarily pervasive to all life situations and circumstances...more
