I had heard that the same head-hunters who found Steve Patterson were being used for the last two months. Dwight Jaynes and Kenny Vance were talking about it last week on The Game. My answer was primarily snark. I imagine every legitimate candidate they found told them to pound sand, but I don't have proof of that part of the story.
Well... Everyone left is certainly going to get the credit they've so craved over the past 4 years. PA: Clear. Second Officer Lawrence Miller: Yes. I don't think I've ever seen such a flat calm. PA: Like a mill pond, not a breath of wind. Second Officer Lawrence Miller: It will make the bergs harder to see... with no breaking water at the base. PA: Hmm. Well, I'm off. Mantain speed and heading, Mr. Miller. Second Officer Lawrence Miller: Yes, sir.
Could be. I was just being snarky. Plus, obviously they couldn't find a solid choice, anyhow, since Larry and the Sunshine Band are apparently starting the search from scratch.
not to pick on you, but some posters are just unbelievable in not accepting that they're outside the loop and always will be. The last thing I want management doing (or expect to see) is them letting us in on more details of what goes on behind the scenes as fans are already batshit fucking crazy over with what little they do know. Letting more info out isn't going to help them achieve their goals. I'm sure they've got a list and are involved in a process, they just aren't spoon feeding Quick his favorite tabloid baby food so he's upset that he's left to look like a fool doing his usual blind speculating act (thanx ABM for not giving a heads up that it was a Quick link I was clicking ). I don't need to know where they are in the process and who they're targeting, my only hope is that at the end of the day they hire a competent guy The team is already stocked. With no GM in place trades/FA signings/roster moves are unlikely. No mo real drama for us... oh woe as me STOMP
Maybe. They could be lying and already have someone in the bag ready to announce. Ya just never know. barfo
What, are they waiting so the new GM can jump out of a big cake with sparklers and an Uncle Sam hat on July 4th? If they have their guy, get it done and get on with the summer. I will say that the obvious incompetence displayed by Larry Miller since Thursday would be a hell of a smokescreen until the big reveal.
They might be waiting until someone's contract is up June 30th. I'm not holding my breath, mind you. But it could be true. And if Larry is just a bad liar, that could explain it. barfo
I think I am going to just make a huge sign that says "WTF??" and hang out outside of Blazer HQ. That should get the point across.
