It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if we didn't have a salary cap.

We took the position we wanted our people to be better than minimum wage, so we're going to pay better than minimum wage, and we still do that.

We made a deal that was acceptable to us. We got paid very handsomely for our final season.

I'm the first to admit this whole salary thing is getting out of control. In the final analysis, it's still about the work.

Yes, I introduced the congressional pay cut bill, cutting our salaries by five percent. And I think we have to lead by example.

I don't know that there are any short cuts to doing a good job.

If you could bring to me a majority of people to say that we're going to have $10 of spending cuts for $1 of revenue enhancement, put me in, coach.

We only had enough money really to cut 10 things and be in there for a month because it's expensive, you know. And, singer/songwriters, today are lucky if they can get a deal, you know. So, we actually worked so fast that we really cut 20 things.

We made some mistakes. We had some managers we didn't like and had to get rid of, and that cost some money. Stuff like that. But overall, we did really well.
