QUOTE TO NOTE: "I learn something from Bill every day. I just learned to stay close to the football side and don't let the other things that are associated with the job interfere with what got you here. That is the main focus that I try to do; to stay close to player evaluations and player acquisitions and making sure players are being developed." -- GM Jeff Ireland on what he's learned from mentor and vice president of football operations Bill Parcells
