Jon Gruden has found something to do while he waits to take his .540 HC winning percentage to another football program (probably) in 2010.
ESPN is making a big change in its Monday Night Football announcing booth.
Former Bucs coach Jon Gruden is in, while Tony Kornheiser is resigning, according to ESPN, after three seasons.
Play-by-play man Mike Tirico and analyst Ron Jaworski are staying in the booth.
We're pointing this out because he's still a "marquee name" that gets thrown about quite often when people begin asking, "If not Charlie Weis, then who?" And yes, we're well aware that the guy won a superbowl against a team that was probably only in the superbowl because they'd been coached by him the previous year. We're also aware that his offensive playbook is not only massive, but also nebulous and full of white-out, pen ink, and whatever markings were made by whatever he could find whenever a new idea struck him. At times, this includes the blood of hapless QBs who couldn't defend themselves against Gruden.

When you’re .540, do you dance with them that brought you or do you dance with another .540? Seems to me, we’ve paid our dues w/ CW and we at least should pretend to be faithful and see if his learning curve warrents ongoing commitment. I’m a chump and keep hoping.

I just want to apologize to the HLS community for ranting in defense of the President coming to Notre Dame. I was so intense about the issue that I did not see the do not respond disclaimer. After the President spoke, I felt even worse as the President spoke about being open to all viewpoints and coming at political discussions from a place of respect. Again, HLS community, sorry about my impetuosness.

Don’t worry about it, tjak. We’re all for good, old fashioned, heated political debates. We just don’t want HLS to become that sort of forum.
