He's demonstrated to me to have the best work ethic. He has the most passion of the next best tackle that I think we have on our team.

It's based on what he's done and what other guys didn't do.

He's a very capable individual, but I'm not confident, based on what he's said and written before, that he can really fulfill the spirit of the Constitution.

He's got nine Division I offers right now. Honestly, it's not for his speed as much as it is based on his technique and his ability to cover the pass as well as help on the run. He's got good size at around 6-foot-2 and 200 pounds. The only true time I have on him, from the Nike Combine, is in the 4.5 neighborhood. In talking to college coaches, they're very impressed with his footwork and in that he has a great nose for the football.

He's been impressive early on. We want Hank to be part of this thing for a long time, so this might be a better opportunity for Emerson to do some things.

What most employees do not realize is that corporate rebates and incentives are enacted when the employee population reaches thresholds outlined in their vendor contracts. Meaning, while an employee thinks the actual cost of his or her airline ticket is $500, the actual cost may be much less.

This is precisely why compliance with preferred vendors and contracted rates is critical.

We're prepared except for not having the actual strike vote happen. Based on the feedback we're getting from members, they're ready.

Joey Porter is getting criticism based on what he (has) said throughout the playoffs. I think it's easy to criticize him because of what he said in the past. But it's not like things he said in the past weren't true. The guy speaks off the cuff; he shows you what he believes and what he thinks. That's not a bad thing.

Joey's been looking good the last couple of days. He's not ready to play the whole game. But, based on what I've seen the last few days, he'll start.

I said in my opening comments... he's a franchise quarterback, and I don't believe a guy loses his position based on injury. So the first thing is, he doesn't need to be injured anymore. He's got to rehab. He's got control over that. I don't have control over that.

You've either got the results you say you want, or you have reasons to explain why not. Developing a rigorous and honest relationship with results moves you powerfully toward creating your extraordinary life.
