Pretty revealing story. Not sure if Floyd and Bill are gonna be too happy. Read the whole thing if you have time.

Ex-GM's wife: Wanted Patriots to score 100 on Titans - NFL - CBSSports.com Football

Excerpt:

Quote:

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The wife of former Titans general manager Floyd Reese called a Nashville radio station Thursday to blast the team and Jeff Fisher, a day after hearing talk that her husband has hated the coach since losing a power struggle in Tennessee.

Sally Reese waited until her husband was on a plane headed to London with the New England Patriots then called WGFX-FM to defend him on air. Reese was let go by the Titans when his contract expired in January 2007.

"He kept Jeff from getting fired two times," Reese said of her husband. "So if he'd let him get fired, he'd still be there. Hello? That's hindsight. ... Sunday I was hoping they'd run it to 100. And I love Tennessee. All you Tennessee people, my dad's from Tennessee, but when you get sucker punched, you want to sucker punch back."

Interesting. I wonder what he'll be saying to his wife when he hears about this.

Hell, I wouldn't have minded if the Patriots had dropped 100 points on the Titans.

I like how she felt she had to qualify it with all the stuff about her love for Tennessee....

Just say it, for f's sake!

I wouldn't think I would know what to do.. other than have every single Patriot player I could in my fantasy side.

They might have if they had a damned 3rd WR.

Good for her. Tennessee dumped Reese, hung him out to dry. Fisher no doubt masterminded the power play. Now everyone knows the douche Fisher really is. Serves him right.

That's fine - Mrs Reese doesn't represent the Patriots' organisation. As long as Floyd keeps it shut, it should be OK.

100. That WOULD have been wild ! All those "Gibbs is a respected coach, blah, blah, blah...running up the..." people would have come back out from hiding to diss BB.

Totally inappropriate and without class.
