Why didn't you re-sign [veteran wide receiver] Amani Toomer?<br /><br />A -- "That's the crappy part of my job. Amani is such a competitive animal that he just refused to admit he couldn't start any more. At least that was our assessment. Could we have kept him around to help the young kids? Sure, but that's not who he is. He wants to start. He's quiet, I don't think he would have had his heart in coaching them. He still thinks it's his job. I wish he would have agreed to retire. I told him there is no way we can every repay him for all his effort, all his accomplishments, but we felt the time had come for him to be a reserve."Lou Spevackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15258147449355059246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4126451417395202308.post-76803774514089711462009-08-17T10:22:04.922-04:002009-08-17T10:22:04.922-04:00I think Carr is underrated.

Eli might have benefited...vis a vis<br />Mc Nabb's replacement last year.<br /><br />Andy, that same NYG patience that<br />you wrote about, must be keeping<br />Gillbrown in place. How much longer<br />must we endure Gillbrown ?Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12473536605527134659noreply@blogger.com
