Hmmmmmm.....where in that post are your suggestions?

You made the post........at least be man enough to stand behind it. You won't, though. You'll just throw out insults because, as usual, you got nothin!

LKP brought more to a discussion.

read a couple more posts down. not my problem youre an ignorant fuck that doesn't even know the interview rules for GMs. We could have interviewed anyone in the world yesterday. We could have been interviewing anyone not on a team prior to that.
 
Hell. I have no idea who they should hire. I am waffling on weather Caldwell should be back. I think i want a new head coach but he did finish 6-2 after the 1-7 start and is 18-14 his first two years with one playoff team that was Jobbed in Dallas. I have no clue if Sheldon White is any good but he did finish 6-2 for whatever that is worth. I do not think Caldwell's track record is very good. His 26-63 record at Wake Forest over 8 years is just not very good. He took over the Colts after Dungy lost in the Super Bowl and his teams went from 14-2 to 10-6 to 2-14 with a bunch of injuries including Manning. In Baltimore he was co-Coordinator with Cam Cameron during the Super Bowl winning season and was 8-8 the next year he took over the offense..

I again I think I want him back. Just unsure right now. I do not think we should blow this team up because I think they are just a few pieces away from being decent.


One thing I see with the damn easy schedule next season I am baffled any proven head coach would not want to give us a try even though were are the Historically poorly Ford Owned Lions. But any head coach who could get us to and win a Super Bowl could probably win the Governors office in Michigan and have 50 statues made of him all over the state..

This is one easy schedule
Home opponents:
Chicago Bears.
Green Bay Packers.
Minnesota Vikings.
Philadelphia Eagles.
Washington Redskins.
Jacksonville Jaguars.
Tennessee Titans.
St. Louis Rams.
-------
Away opponents:
Chicago Bears.
Green Bay Packers.
Minnesota Vikings.
Dallas Cowboys.
New York Giants.
Houston Texans.
Indianapolis Colts.
New Orleans Saints.

were going undefeated. You heard it here first. That schedule is cake lol.
 
A lot can change in an off-season, several of those teams have little else to go but up. Looks nice now, but we'll see how things look in September/October. I'm sure many of those teams see Detroit as a winnable game.

There are always two or three teams that do better than expected and two or three teams each year that do worse. Most people had Philly in the playoffs this year and they were awful. So were the Dolphins.

And I don't think many people expected Cincinnati to be nearly as good as they were. And somebody in the NFC East has to be better next year, don't they?

Guy from the Bengals turned us down today.

Yeah, but just like McClay, he also turned down the Titans and has said he won't interview with anyone.

I have to wonder how much of a pay difference there really is between the GM and most of his executives. Sometimes it's just worth a little extra money for all the extra headaches when that "extra" might really amount to pocket change for some of these millionaires.

The whole thing reminds me of the bodysuit man episode of Seinfeld.
 
Didn't watch a lot of Seinfeld. I don't get the reference.

Jerry's friend George works for the Yankees and gets offered a job as assistant to the GM of the Mets. But because he is still under contract he has to get himself fired.

George does everything in his power to get the axe including wearing Babe Ruth's game worn jersey to a lunch meeting, where he drops hot dog mustard all over it and wipes his fingers on it. Steinbrenner thinks it is a genius move by George to put the Yankees past success behind them and focus on present and future titles.

He then decides to go streaking on opening day to get fired, but because he is to self conscious he wears a flesh toned bodysuit to hide his shame. The crowd and announcers think this is a hilarious and harmless send up of streaking and bodysuit man becomes somewhat of a folk hero.

Finally he drags the Yankees 2000 World Series trophy behind his car through the Yankees parking lot shouting out how much the Yankees suck and how their accomplishments are meaningless. He gets called into Steinbrenner's office to be fired, but instead his boss takes the blame. Later George finds out his boss was offered the same job.
 
I don't know what Elaine is so upset about. I mean, without desiccates, those clothes'll be noticeably musty in five years.

If you see Bob Quinn streak across the field in the AFC divisional we will all know why.

Was really weird until the punchline.. that was pretty funny.

Every season is on Hulu right now and I am enjoying getting reacquainted. That whole cinco de mayo subplot was hilarious.
 
Sadly, I can say with confidence I've seen each episode at least 20 times and probably know them by heart.

If you haven't watched Curb Your Enthusiasm, I highly recommend. It's basically the R rated version of Seinfeld.

I just started watching Curb Your Enthusiasm about a week ago. Love it.
