"What do you do if it turns out to be Mike Sherman?

After you yawn, of course.

After all the names, after all the interviews, after all the days of wandering around the country looking for a new coach, what if the Bucs end up hiring the rather uninspiring Sherman? Do you pump your fist into the air? Do you race to the ticket window to see if any are left? Or do you bring in Warren Sapp to yell a little more?

Let's agree on this: There are worse choices than Sherman; not that that's anything a coach wants to put on his answering machine.

"Hi, you've reached Mike Sherman. I'm not in right now, but there were worse choices than me.''"
