It's rarely a good idea to share your career change plans with your colleagues or boss until you have a written offer in hand. And it's rarely a good idea to accept a counteroffer from your present company. (Over half the workers who accept a counteroffer are gone within six months, one way or another.).So sad that it is being pulled here. I thought he was already in line to get an NFL front office job. He had worked with Tampa as a scout and had head coaching experience as a HS and college coach.

Yet they were treated like afterthoughts, awarded halfbuilt, jerryrigged seats, folding chairs on auxiliary platforms. Which begs the question of what the "NFL fan experience" really means anymore. A day later the league did its best to make it up to them with offers of tickets to Super Bowl XLVI in Indianapolis and Goodell called it "obviously a failure on our part.".On Oct. 28, the New England Patriots will play the St. Louis Rams..
