Adios!  Chio!  Auf Wiedersehen! 

Its been a great run, Herm.  So sad to see you go.  You'll be leaving awfully tough shoes to fill.  Not anyone can blow all 3 timeouts with a two score lead in the fourth quarter.  No, it takes an incredibly inept man to pull that off.  Its going to be tough to find someone to roam the sidelines who can dole out as many blank and empty stares.  And where on Earth will we find a coach so willing to pass blame and responsibility on to others.  Man, Herm, the buck never stopped with you.

Yeah, it’s going to be tough to replace you, but we'll get by.  Hell, maybe you'll come back to town every so often; we'll run into each other, it will be awkward.  You'll ask rhetorical questions, we'll stumble across some answers trying to appease you.  We'll try to give you our full attention, I promise, but we won't.  It will be hard to give you the attention you deserve what with all the, you know, the winning.

See ya!
