Remember, Mike is old school, a stubborn old-schooler. His philosophy is simple. I pay you, you work for me, go out and do your job. You struggling, its OK, try harder next time but you're working for me, you ain't going nowhere. Remember Akili and Ditka?

Most teams on the other hand are, you can't do your part? We will let you go and get someone else as soon as we can and will.
Unfortunately, the NFL this day n' age doesn't work the Mikey way anymore. hasn't for the last 30 yrs or so.
