In all of this, in all the Antonio Brown madness and the Raiders and all that stuff, I think we owe Mike Tomlin an apology. I think he actually dealt with Antonio Brown the way that you have to deal with a receiver that talented.

If you're extremely talented at something, you can probably get away with more than everyone else. That's a tough lesson... If you are extremely valuable and exceptionally talented at your given work, you probably can get away with shit.

The Bears were a fucking joke tonight. Yeah. They were a joke. How's that make you ten penalties? 407 yards the offense looked like shit. The defense was awesome.

Jehovah's Witnesses should carry pizzas to get people to open their doors.

I actually think the NCAA depicts these stories specifically they're like, we need to find a way where everyone would think our ruling is completely unjust and bullshit rule that way.
