The NFL is a business but it's not like working at Nissan or Wal-Mart. I'm not trying to be a dick but it's not a typical job. I don't know what went on behind closed doors but I always thought Reeves left on his own that year.

"[Tuesday], I advised Dan that we've decided to bring in a new head coach beginning in the 2004 season," Falcons owner Arthur Blank said. "Dan asked to be released from his position immediately and we agreed to do so, even though our desire was for him to stay on through the rest of the season."

Linebacker Keith Brooking, one of Reeves' staunchest supporters, didn't blame the coach for asking to be let go now.

"You've got to respect that decision," Brooking said. "It would have been tough to come in here and give it everything, knowing your job was ending at the end of the year."

The NFL is big business. It's primary goal is to make $$$. Don't kid yourself about that.
