The end of the world as we know it
And I don't feel fine. Why? Two words: Dick Jauron. The man who ran up a 35-46 record as the coach of the Chicago Bears is the new head coach of my beloved Buffalo Bills.
Now, this decision was made by Marv Levy, who is no dummy. Neither is Dick Jauron. The dude went to Yale, and according to the newspaper, he is usually the "smartest man in the room."
But why am I perplexed by this decision? It's probably because he had one winning year as coach of the Bears, and was terrible the other four years. There's the oft-repeated tale of Mr. John Shoop. I'm all for giving Jauron a second chance, and I hope they made the right decision, especially because every Bills fan I can think of thought recently canned Green Bay coach Mike Sherman was the far better choice. Of course, I'm no football person either, so I can't claim to have any special knowledge.
After about six years of Bills futility, I am sorely in need of a change. Dick Jauron, it's your turn to try and right the ship.

Dick Jauron is a good coach. He'll turn around the Bills.
