Falcons: Petrino's letter to the players the day he left...

[Jesus]

This hung in the locker of each player the day he turned curly tail and ran...

Quote:"Atlanta Falcons players:
Out of my respect for you, I am letting you know that, with a heavy heart, I resigned today as head coach of the Atlanta Falcons. This decision was not easy, but it was made in the best interest of me and my family. While my desire would have been to finish out what has been a difficult season for us all, circumstances did not allow me to do so. I appreciate your hard work and wish you the best. Sincerely, Bobby Petrino.'

Note how Me comes before my Family....still does.

I've wished nothing but bad for him. I'm glad to see it happening and I hope it continues for him.

Translated from petrino'ese into English

"I've discovered it's more difficult as an NFL head coach to hire college hotties to be office sluts than it was when I was coaching college, so I'm running away back to college so I can intimidate my players and bang young girls behind my wife's back, because Mr. Blank won't let me get away with being a scumbag here."

Lawyer Milloy will always have a place in Falcon legacy for his response to the letter.

His response to the firing:

"That's karma,'' former Falcons defensive back Lawyer Milloy told the New York Times. "Just because he knows Xs and Os, that doesn't mean he's a nice person.''
