i went to a shopping center the other day looking for  a Ross Dress for Less, but it was replaced years ago by an Old Navy.  I was so pissed I ran over an Old Navy shopping cart, but since I ride a motorcycle I lost the cops

Andy needs to hit his kid for a change.

REID WALKS OUT OF PRESS CONFERENCE

Gary Cobb reports that Eagles coach Andy Reid walked out of a Friday press conference after reporters began asking him questions about his son, Britt, who was taken into custody on Thursday for suspicion of DUI.

Reid had said in the press conference that he would not answer any questions about his son.

On one hand, we think that the troubles of Reid's adult son are unrelated to Reid's job, and should not be discussed at a press conference or anywhere else.  On the other hand, the fact that Reid took an unusual leave of absence after his sons encountered legal troubles in January makes the topic fair game.

As Cobb points point, fans and the media are entitled at a minimum to know whether Reid is considering taking more time off. 

There are only 32 NFL head-coaching jobs, and a certain amount of scrutiny goes with the territory.  Reid should be willing to provide basic information about his own plans in the wake of this latest development, and under no circumstances should he be offended by the fact that reporters are asking basic questions about the issue.   

I didn't see the press conference.....anyone see it?
