I wrote the following Letter to the Editor of the San Antonio Express-News just before Texas Tech Coach Mike Leach was canned.  Although I did not play football in Texas, I did play a much less masochistic sport, Baseball, and got a very small dose of what my Football brothers experienced from the likes of Vernon McManus.  It's with you guys in mind that I run into this buzz saw.

Tell it like it is Roger.  Leach was so sadistic to have the poor player sit in a cool area in the dark to help him with his concussion.  Bobby Jack and Vernon only liked to be nice to the players and were so understanding.  Vernon let a freshman player play Bull in the ring and called jersey numbers as he was on the ground to help him sustain broken ribs.  Sports Writer Dan Cook was amazed to this wonderful treatment.  Then Bobby Jack helped players clear out their throat wind pipes.  The adams apple could be pulled out at any time.  That was real special.  I remember during summer camp climbing the rope barely making it to the top and Vernon grabbed the rope and swung it around and I slid down blistering my hands and then my huevos got smushed on the ropes bottom knot.  Such wonderful memories I will never forget.  There is much more but out of screen room.
