Private airport security worked SOOOO well, didnt it? I understand Darren's point, but Argenbright and the other private security firms were a joke. They had women in burquas who could barely speak English checking bags at Dulles for $8/hour.

Throw Mike Shanahan into the mix of coaches who didnt do so hot first time around. Hows he doing these days, today aside? Jurons not too exicting, but I refuse to jump off the ledge.

PATHETIC is more like it.

Maybe FFS can school us on how this is racist. Im tired...........

Hate to say it, but weve gotten on players and coaches for their hair color, headwear, the way they walk, the way they speak, their choice of off season hobbies, where they live and everything in between. You think at some point skin color wouldnt come into play?

I'd give FFS three seconds before he reversed his love of affirmative action if HE was passed over for a promotion or job because of it. THREE SECONDS. And sorry, FFS...quotas, counting statistics and looking at color to determine job eligibility is NOT the American Way. Thats what we strive to do away with.

Glad SOMEONE got the joke!

How am I bringing up the PAST by listing the coaches RIGHT NOW? And how is Edwards move a "swap"? Thats a HIRE. NEWSFLASH: He had to be HIRED by a team in order for that "swap" to take place. Come on....the bottom line is tha there wont be hires THIS YEAR for minorities. One year does not make a trend. The last few years there have been good hires in this area. Were up to 20% of the coaching roster being AA. Thats good progress. If this trend goes on another year or two where ZERO minorities who are good candidates get passed over, then youll have a point. Until then, there is nothing to discuss.

You dont think the majority should be, but when I point out that its up to 20%, you say its not enough. So 20% is not enough and it doesnt have to be over 50%. So give us a number. Maybe 45.4535434332%

Henderson got canned YESTERDAY. Carthon got FOUR interviews, in this, his first year attepting to get a job. How many WHITE coaches have to get multiple interviews to get jobs?

But Art Shell would qualify as a "new hire". Youre amazing. And BTW...in order to "switch teams", hes got to be HIRED by the new team! So in your mind, to satisfy you the NFL coaching roster has to be comprised of at least 50% black coaches who at the time of hire, had no previous head coaching experience. Wheres the punchline? Theres GOT to be one.

So far, youve pulled up issues from three years gao (Lewis/Dungy) and TEN years ago (Shell) to make a point about the state of hiring in 2006. How about bringing up something from TODAY to make your point? Whats next, youre going to bring up Leon Seals to point out the poor state of the Bills' interior line?

NEW HIRES? Herman Edwards doesnt count? Keep trying.

Marvin Lewis Tony Dungy Lovie Smith Denny Green Romeo Crennel Herman Edwards There are now black coaches running close to 20% of the NFL teams. Nah....no progress in this area...but good shot at being "outraged." Art Shell.....ROTFL.

The man's got YEARS of coaching experience, hes available and heas had some success. Now why would the Bilsl want to interview someone like THAT?? Hes not my favorite either, but sheesh...give it a rest. The Bilsl are going above and beyond to make sure all their bases are covered and they make a good decision. They are being very careful and covering all their bases. Guys....thats a GOOD thing.

Spending good money on good coaches. What a concept.

At least its not a headband.

Well, that just SEALS it for me. How's one of our pariahs, DAN HENNING doing right now??!!??

WFAN reports: Mike Francessa is still fat.

Youre right....my bad.

So go to the bathroom and release. Jeez...last time we bitched they moved too quick. Now we B word that they are taking their time and being thorough? Being thorough.....Dont want to do THAT, especially considering the huge success of the last two coach hirings.

The more the merrier. Let em bring in everyone. Last time we complained they pulled the trigger too quick. We cant now complain that they are being thorough. But then again...this is TSW.

Buh....buh....buh....that was.......DIFFERENT! Amazing what a three second Google yields.

The flaw in your argument is that the Executive doesnt wire tap under "all and any circumstances." Call me nuts, but when the man who has done a ton of damage to us the last fifteen years says he's gunning for us again, Id listen...and maybe raise our guard a bit. Give the govt. rights to run roughshod over everything? No. But there needs to be a balance here. Revise FISA, institute emergency powers with Congress' approval..something. I dont claim to have the answer, but do ANYTHING but go on with the status quo. And PJ......"A compromise" with OBL. Good idea, Chamberlain.
