	SI.com - NFL - Vikings coach Tice investigated for ticket scalping - Tuesday March 8, 2005 10:48PM
		Minnesota head coach Mike Tice is being investigated by the NFL for allegedly heading up and profiting from a Super Bowl ticket-scalping operation within the Vikings organization, a violation of NFL rules that league sources say has been going on for years.
		Tice, one source said, accused the player of trying to "backdoor the head coach." Tice then successfully pressured some players to renege on their commitment and sell their tickets through him, the player said, even though Tice was offering slightly less money per ticket.
		Tice, the league's lowest-paid coach at $1 million per season, is entering the final year of his contract with Minnesota, and his job security was an ongoing issue all of 2004.

		Tice, who finished his fourth full season with a 32-32 overall record, had already addressed the media before the move was made public.

		Tice has also acknowledged that he scalped Super Bowl tickets as a Vikings assistant coach from 1996-2001, and that he told his assistants this year it was all right for them to sell their Super Bowl tickets to a California ticket agency that he has long dealt with.

	Twin Cities Minnesota: Mike Tice - The Scalper
		That's a direct contradiction to what he was saying just a few days ago when he claimed that though he routinely scalped tickets as an assistant coach, he never scalped tickets after he became head coach.
		Tice kept the story alive by feeding SI.com reporters eye-dropper doses of story hooks: He didn't scalp tickets as a head coach but did as an assistant; then he admits to scalping Super Bowl tickets as a head coach.
		The manner in which Tice handled this story practically begs the league to come down harder on him than they may have otherwise because this story has become an embarassment not just for Tice, but for the league as a whole.

	Mr. big's shot: Mike Tice is oversized, colorful and fun, a lot like the loudmouth on the next barstool. But on the ...
		Tice's wife, who likes to bust him to keep him humble, which is like asking Larry King to be modest, tells him to grow up.
		Tice believes in this loyalty thing big-time--go ask anyone in Central Islip about loyalty--and he starts right off as coach by declaring the "Randy Ratio," which really is a love offering to Moss, only the jerk never understands.
		If Moss had his way, Tice and Daunte Culpepper would be ex-Vikings and his own loud mouth and mercurial personality would be in Minnesota, where his teammates still would be disgusted with both his churlish behavior and his special set of rules.

		Hammond then concluded his presentation by revealing that the average ape’s IQ is 30-percent higher than Tice’s.

	Other Voices: Wins would keep Tice employed
		Mike is a very good NFL coach, and will be an NFL coach for years to come.
		McCombs and Tice said they relish the opportunity to return to the playoffs for the first time since 2000, and don't fear the pressure that comes with avoiding a season-ending collapse similar to last year's.
		Because Tice, who is paid a league-low $750,000 a year, played 10 of his 14 NFL seasons in Seattle, he was asked if the University of Washington head coaching vacancy would be among the openings that could lure him to the college ranks for the first time.

		I like how Mike Tice did his press conference in a t-shirt, he looked like he would be cleaning up the place after he was done.
		Tice came off as pretty ticked at the podium, reminding everyone how the Vikings had the second best record in the NFC for the past three years or something like that and he knows someone will want to hire him because he likes to teach.
		Mike Martz can write up some plays, but the guy is a dork of a coach.

		With Tice wanting to start Bennett and O'Leary wanting to use a seven-man defensive-line rotation (Lyon is No. 7), either linebacker Raonall Smith or fullback Charles Stackhouse would be the odd man out on special teams.
