In fact, quite a few       show-causes include requirements that if the coach is hired, he has to be       suspended for a certain number of games.              That's why I don't want a show-cause in this case.              Mike              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
