     Thank you for your comments.  I do agree with what you posted.  You 
made a lot of great points!


       After I responded I thought about it I wished I had responded in 
a different way.  Instead of trying to defend a certain position I 
should have asked Jon why he was coming after me?  Why didn't he come 
after the person that posted?  I just agreed with the post.  I think it 
just lends more credence to the fact Jon wanted to nail me.  Your 
thoughts and ideas to Jon were not pertinent here.  It was who posted 
and not what was posted.  I had nothing to do with the subject matter or 
the composition thereof.  I just agreed. 


     Yet, I have to say that is how I took your post as you described 
above.  I took it to mean no one is perfect.  It shows in all areas of 
life and on all coaching staffs.  I took you to say that okay Callahan 
made a mistake but is not like not one else makes mistakes.   I'll say 
it again.  Great post!!
