God, I am so pissed off right now and I just can't sit here and be all, "Well, good luck Joe, thanks for the memories." I realize I sound like a complete drama queen right now, but I don't care. I hope I feel differently after I hear him speak.

When did he say he was coming back for sure in 2008? All I recall him saying is that he'll have his usual sit-down with Snyder once the season is over.

If yesterday's presser was any indication, he was either on the fence or already decided but hadn't finalized with Snyder, and thus was very non-committal with the media.

As for good reasons, the guys is 67, probably hasn't seen his family in 4 years, and has a grandson with leukemia, besides bringing this team through what is arguably one of the most difficult seasons to be endured by an NFL team.

I think that's reason enough to cut him a break for wanting to leave.
