Again, if the NYC police chief makes $220k a year, there is no earthly way to defend giving the UCONN chief 30k more than that. It's the stupidest thing I ever heard. How did they arrive at that salary? Did they just ask this guy to name his price?
The NYC police chief is nothing more than a politician. He doesn't do "things every day", that would be the job of the individual precinct chiefs. The NYC police chief gets on TV and talks about the hard work his officers are doing and all the wonderful things they're planning.

And the NYC commissioner isn't exactly a model citizen himself.
