Monte Agrees In Principle, Stroud To Hang Self In Shower

He hasn't signed yet, it Monte Kiffin's agent, Jimmy Sexton, confirms that Kiffin will be sticking around with the Buccaneers for around $2 million per year.

"We should have something on it in a day or so."

Earlier today, I read Rick Stroud's story about Kiffin getting offered less than he was currently making.

It's believed the Bucs have offered Kiffin less than what he made last season, leaving the two sides considerably apart.

I had half an entry written about how "it's believed" means Stroud had absolutely no sources and was just pulling this out of his gargantuan asshole, but I abandoned it because it started to sound like I was piling on when I really didn't know what Kiffin was offered myself. The Tribune touched on it, but their version of it has far fewer instances of the words "fuckface" and "hack-tacular".

News of the agreement came despite reports claiming the Bucs had lowballed Kiffin on a contract offer. However, Kiffin's agent, Jimmy Sexton, told the Tribune that those reports were inaccurate.

I'm not sure which is more satisfying, Kiffin being retained or Stroud being publicly proven wrong again. Isn't it about time to stick him on the monster truck rally or championship bingo beats?

This is the look Kiffin gave Bruce Allen when he made his first offer.
