POTUS appears to be expert at selecting an issue from his man-purse then throwing it at the wall just to see what will stick. The eerie part of it is that he doesn't even look into the bag to see what he is throwing next. For example, see the past six years worth of foreign non-policy.

Rex Ryan is a buffoon of the first order. Hiring him for the Buffalo job would be a costly mistake no matter what side of the ball you think he has some expertise. Blow hard, self-aggrandizer, larger than life, never-will-be. His only chance is to hook on somewhere as a coordinator with a strong head coach to rein in Rex' actions.

Rex would be my "last straw" factor in terms of following the Bills. On the other hand, his hiring would make me forget a great number of other totally dumb moves made by OBD.

Opinions are like @$$holes, everybody has one....

Well, I guess since there wasn't a consultant's report to review, we may never know who knew what and when...kinda' like our government, eh? The fact remains, you asked what I wanted done and I told you what I felt should have been done since day one. When it comes right down to the nitty gritty, have any of us read an "official article" about anything that has happened over the past few days? And then there's the possibility that if there was an official article from OBD most of us would be skeptical of whatever it said...given that yesterday is the best predictor of tomorrow. So to the Pegulas it's more like an electric train in the cellar than a business worthy of a 1.4 billion dollar investment?

My sources tell me that he was in a compromising position when the police raided the joint; harried Harry tripped over his suspenders during the get away. Result: Face plant city.

Marrone appears to be but one of the several major problems in the organization. However, with the widespread dislike/suspicion of Marrone that is coming to light now, chances are a consultant just might have gotten a sense of what was to come and relayed that to his employer. At the very least a consultant would be sure that the owner at least knew that the head coach could opt out at some point with the coming of a new owner. With that knowledge, the owner could have developed a series of options if/when the opt out came to pass.

What I want(ed) was for the Pegulas to hire a consultant on the day the purchase was official- an individual who could assess the state of affairs from a neutral vantage point then make recommendations regarding practices and personnel in the organization to the owner and then go away - his consultancy job would be finished. The owner would accept some of the recommendations, probably reject others, then hire a permanent employee as a "change agent" charged with carrying out the recommendations endorsed by the owner. Too late for most of that now....

How much time do you figure they'll need before they take some ahead-of-the-curve actions that promise to right the ship? Isn't the clock ticking louder and louder as the faux pas add up at OBD?

Leather, braided rope, or vinyl?

Great, we get to start all over again...again...again...

Ya' got me. I think the guy's a buffoon of the first order. He strikes me as a candidate for used car salesman in some small metropolitan area New Jersey city.

Actually, I think POTUS would probably be an OK guy if I'd run into him around the quad about fifteen years ago. Today, however, he is the all-time poster child for the Peter Principle.

Incidents flagellated by the media result in a toxic brew that fuels the wing nuts around us; cop killings, rioting, looting, etc. result, then the media jumps in again to create a self-reinforcing upward spiral of chaos. (gatorman - PM me and I'll 'splain the big words to you.)

So for years the Dem's pilloried Bush's Mission Accomplished statement; now POTUS does the same damn thing? What a maroon. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2014/12/26/obama-afghanistan-wont-be-source-terrorist-attacks-again/?intcmp=latestnews Do we need a contest to guess the date of the next terrorist attack coming out of A'stan?

Let me spell this out for you: The ban on fracking in NYS is largely based on environmental concerns. The primary focus of those concerns is excessive water use as well as the disposal of the contaminated water post-frack. If/when producers develop a fracking method that uses little or no water in the process, and if prices are in a profitable range, NYS will revisit the fracking ban in a New York minute...so to speak. At least two producers are experimenting with a fracking process based on use of a pressurized gas to replace water in the oil/gas recovery process. Sheessssh, try to keep up will ya'

And then there is the camp that applauds the ban because it will (if prices recover) drive the oil/gas producers to develop a cleaner fracking process that eliminates the dependence on water and the contaminated water disposal problems.

See, this is what happens.... Our team implodes in the midst of our playoff hope circle and the acolytes turn on each other hoping to purge the disappointment. Step back, reflect, begin to chant the Bills mantra, "We should be better next year." Remember: There's light at the end of the tunnel. Oh wait, that's the 4:10 to Yuma.

We should probably make reservations at the Brooklyn Red Roof Inn for the NAN's leader who'll soon breeze into town to organize protests...won't cha Al?

My bid for at least one component of the retaliation against North Korea is to send Dennis Rodman there for an extended stay.

General Mills

So Pearl Harbor didn't beget Hiroshima...?

Yes, play it for every score. Which, unfortunately may mean we won't hear it all that often in the course of a game....

If you don't watch both MSNBC and FNN regularly, it would be hard to claim you're tapping into both ends of the continuum and therefore have a balanced opinion of the media's bias or lack thereof. Just sayin'
