Thanks, Darren. Shouldn't Dean Wormer and Narcissus have made the list? Larry - a con man who found a bunch of folk with no street sense that he could bamboozle. Why was a guy with zero college experience hired in the first place? And then the same fools doubled down on the next guy. Tez - disappointing Combine.
