I'll take Things That Never Happened for $100, Alex.There’s a difference between being tough and taking away a kids meal card so he can’t eat.

Yeah, I’m going to hold off firing the HC until there’s a little more information. It’s way too easy now to make any claim and have the media run with it. That would seem to be pretty easy to substantiate if true.I'll take Things That Never Happened for $100, Alex.
Totally indifferent to your adolescent tirade....
He left for the Bengals as a free agent in 1994...while Shula was coach. He came back a year later for Shula's last season.Ol chump L. Oliver went on a whole diatribe at Wet Willies once on how much he hated J.J. ...
Butt hurt he got shipped to the bungals. You never know who has an agenda. I don't jump on anyone's first word . The situation has to play out.
Cool. But i was there. He did club promotions with my homie...He left for the Bengals as a free agent in 1994...while Shula was coach. He came back a year later for Shula's last season.
Jimmy was coach in 1996, Louis Oliver's last season (8th). As far as I know Oliver retired after the 1996 season.
Whatever you say Einstein.....What a stunning lack of self-awareness.

Jimmy was hated by a lot of Howard’s players, and he eventually pushed a lot of Them out the door. If you were recruited by Jimmy you loved him, he had your back.
I believe you, I was just wondering why he said that. Now that I think about it, I believe he may have been released by the Dolphins (or they elected not to resign him) in 1994, rather than him leaving willingly. He had a bad foot injury in the 1993 season that limited his games played. I'm guessing he felt that he was forced out.Cool. But i was there. He did club promotions with my homie...

Oliver went to Cincinnati in 1994, hated it, and was happy to return in 1995.
OLIVER: CINCINNATI NOT A PLACE YOU WANT TO CALL HOME
Safety Louis Oliver doesn’t hold a grudge, but he’s certainly happy he’s not a Cincinnati Bengal anymore. “I was glad to get out of there,” said Oliver, who was waived…www.sun-sentinel.com
Looks like we have lots of Machiavelli readers on this thread.You can be respected and even feared without being demeaning and degrading. Not many have mastered that, and not many will. People think you have to destroy your charges in order to be respected or to lead properly, but that's not true. The guys you mentioned have giant egos, but ego doesn't have to translate to demeaning and degrading.

I remember when he and Jarvis Williams were called the B2s in the early 90s. Oliver (I believe) said that they represented "2 billion dollars worth of defense."Its tough at the end of a career to let go....
