	Capitalizing on others misfortunes, is that the only thing you know
how to do?  That only shows how low you really are!

	Billy Joe made an unfortunate mistake that will cause his career.
There is nothing that the coaching staff or UW could have done to prevent
this.  This kind of things happens all over the place.  Not only in Miami.

	BTW Arizona did not kick UW's ass.  UW played poorly and gave the 
game away.  I'd like to see if Miami can beat Arizona at Arizona.

	Geez!  I can't believe that anyone would kick someone while they are
down!  How despicable!
