  1. Apparently. The guys on Promo's list made their bones in the pre-Internet age, when being right/thoughful was more inportant than first/inane...
  2. What's wrong with 'ignore user'
  3. You mean TSW? It already is...
  4. Tiger will make a nice payment to "change her mind..."
  5. Clearly, you must be a Twitter user...
  6. It was a passing fad anyway...
  7. No doubt, she's angling for a nice payday from Tiger...
  8. IMO, TD made the splashy picks that backfired. Modrak's assessments may have been flawed, but Donahoe's fingerprints are all over the Williams, Losman, McGahee, Kelsay and Parrish picks (not to mention the Bedsoe trade).
  9. Simple. Any good senior manager wants to learn all facets of his company's business, even if he doesn't have direct input into how a particular department is run...a fact that would be clear to anyone with management experience.
  10. Nope. And since the kid didn't write it either, he's no different...
  11. Sacrilege.... Wardrobes and videos < musical talent
  12. Attending things and making player personnel decisions are not mutually inclussive. In published articles after his "promotion," Brandon himself said that he was interested in learning the player personnel side--but that he was not an expert in it.
  13. Please substantiate that. Buddy's here because of his past association with Ralph during the Polian/Butler era...
  14. Geez, had me worried there for a moment...
  15. Your vendetta against the Bills is coloring your thoughts, as usual. Nix was hired as GM on December 31, 2009---well into the scouting season. Letting Modrak go at that point would be akin to firing the offensive cooridinator the week before the season starts...
  16. Agreed. While he was here, TD had the biggest influence on who was chosen in the first two rounds, just as DJ did after Whitey was fired. You can make an agrument that Modrak's evaluations were off, but not that he's some Svengali making the picks. Funny (sad) article on Roscoe pick. I suspect Nix will slowly replace/upgrade the scouting department this year, with Modrak likely to retire at some point in the near future...
  17. Agreed. Somehow I suspect this guy will be the ultimate loser in this affair... Looks like he's had a checkered past himself. TV news followup
  18. Sure they do. When it comes to the draft, it's "watch what I do, not what I say." That's why so many fans are shocked when guys get drafted higher or lower than where the 'buzz' said they should...
  19. How accurate are the Statistics and Grading? Not very... "As with any type of analysis we are always at the whim of the TV companies who seem to think showing a QB or HBs face right up until the snap somehow makes good coverage. We do the best we can but can't guarantee to cover every play. To this you can add human error both in terms of simple mistakes and also interpretation of definitions when grading.'
  20. Another fine example of 'Youth is wasted on the young.' Enjoy your TSW posting career...
