What it means |
 |
Wright Thompson of The Times-Picayune reports that to public -- and even some NFL co-workers -- he's the aloof, bespectacled square who runs one of the world's most successful companies.
|
He seems to be very much like New York. Huge. Anonymous. Corporate. But, like the city's, his image deceives. Want to know the real Paul Tagliabue? The clues are all around him. Follow the trail.

Kevin Paul Dupont of The Boston Globe says everyone in the world has a fish story. Anglers big and small boast about their great catches, almost as much as they bemoan the ones that shook the hook.
|
Patriots defensive lineman Brandon Mitchell grew up around here, born and raised in Abbeville, La., and he has an alligator tale. It's his uncle's story, really, and the catch of the day didn't get away.
|
 |
Bernie Miklasz of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports Mike Martz spent an hour chatting with members of the media. He wasn't cocky. The haughtiness was gone. The Mad Mike circuitry was unplugged.
|
Martz is the closest thing that the Rams have for a controversial figure. Around the NFL, Martz was Steve Spurrier before Washington actually hired Spurrier. He's the coach who so many people like to dislike.
