There's something else I want you to take note of today. This one is for all of you who feel like you've been taken for granted by your boss. Let's take it a step further, that boss fires you, how do you prove him wrong? Yesterday, we got the answer. You keep your head up, and you prove him wrong. This is one of those stories that transcends sports. Chad Pennington was cut by New York Jets head coach Eric Mangini. He wasn't good enough anymore, they wanted a big name, so they signed Brett Farve. Pennington didn't cry, didn't complain and didn't name call. Instead he went to play for a respectable, but horrible competitor at the time, the Miami Dolphins, the worst team in football. What a difference a year makes. Yesterday Pennington played against the team that threw him away, the team with the famous quarterback. Guess who won? Pennington and the Dolphins! Guess who's going to the playoffs? Pennington and the Dolphins! Guess who's staying home? The New York Jets. One more question: guess who just lost his job? Head coach Eric Mangini, who got rid of Pennington, was fired today. Pennington proved his boss wrong. And today even New Yorkers would agree, he did it the right way, the old-fashioned way. And so it goes.
