I think Sully has mentioned and included his crew at every opportunuty. The media has a short attention span and can only focus on one theme, and preferably one person, at a time. That's why they always interview the quarterback or the coach after a game, seldom the whole team. I can also make a case that Couric's audience (she's #3 of the 3 majors and falling) is uneducated about the real world environment, but I digress.

Enough with the Sully bashing. They all did a great job and have become valuable ambassadors for our profession. I hope they make a bazillion on speeches and books and tell Doug Parker to stuff it up his a**.
