It seems that his coaching career is extremely harmful to his health and it will only continue to degrade and a change in careers is the only way to decrease the stress that is causing his obesity. Health comes first above all. Maybe he should just buy a few Golden Corrals and let the money come in as he sits back and enjoys some fried chicken dipped under the chocolate fountain.
