Falcons Hire Petrino

See Bobby Lowder, it's easy. You don't need a jet to get Bobby Petrino. You need a fortune built by the Home Depot. Arthur Blank and his Atlanta Falcons, ignoring the cautionary tales of Steve Spurrier and Nick Saban, hired Louisville head coach Bobby Petrino as their head coach tonight.

For West Virginia, it clears one big hurdle to the Big East title every year. For me, it adds another head coaching spot to watch. For Jimbo Fisher, it is another resume to send out. For Mrs. Petrino, it means she can get those yellow diamond earrings she's had her eye on because its a five year deal worth $24 million. The Falcons urge you to redo your kitchen soon.

By the way, Petrino signed a new contract extension worth $10 million dollars just this past summer.
