I need to know what the **** was going on with Palko. If Haley was indeed playing this kid as a sort of "**** you" to Pioli, he is the single most abysmal HC in the history of the NFL because he essentially quit on his team but stuck around to rub salt in the wound.
Bobby Patrino thinks that's a gutless thing to do.
