Pretty much.

He (sort of) took some responsibility in the Frazier situation (if I'm remembering right, it was more like 'it's my fault Frazier wasn't a good coach). Kind of backhanded, but there was that time. The only other thing I could remember where Marvin said he had any real fault was... and this is going to have me cleaning up sooooo many posts later... Gatorade.

Quote:I was told this morning about Johnathan's comments that were printed," Lewis said Wednesay in an online chat with the Cincinnati Enquirer. "It's my fault that I feel that a player doesn't need to take a dozen Gatorades home in his backpack each night and that we are paying him a salary. I'm sure that Johnathan would not have been one of the abusive players, but it is my policy."
