jimmy10 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 The Buffalo media are having one huge circle jerk right now. Did they really believe Whaley was going to disclose the depth of his discussions with the Pegulas about Rex? The problem with the Bills is the management structure -- and it sounds as though they've made the decision to give the GM more authority. Maybe... But torch and pitchfork futures are through the roof! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtbag Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 So when someone at you work gets fired, do you go up to the CEO and ask why he was fired? whaley isn't an intern. he's the gm. the idea that he wouldn't ask or be interested in why rex was fired is insane.

Chilly Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 You know what the word input means right? I think it's pretty clear Whaley is getting another shot because Rex wasn't his guy. Not hard to read between the lines in this PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deranged Rhino Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 so whos fault is it? I blame the reporters for this press conference falling off the rails. Every !@#$in question was part of their witch hunt. Period. !@#$in jokes Public speaking is perhaps Whaley's biggest weakness. People here want to say he's dim, but it's clear he has a speech impediment he's worked hard to overcome -- and when stressed, it takes effort for him to keep it in check. That said, Whaley could have taken more control over this press conference but hasn't. That's on him. There are also a ton of ridiculous questions being hurled at him by ridiculous men doing their job poorly. It's 50/50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sullim4 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 So when someone at you work gets fired, do you go up to the CEO and ask why he was fired? When a peer of mine that I work with constantly disappears or gets fired, yeah, I ask my boss what the hell happened. And I've done that... and I usually get a reasonable explanation. Whaley got an explanation, but he either doesn't want to answer the question, or he was told not to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chilly Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 whaley isn't an intern. he's the gm. the idea that he wouldn't ask or be interested in why rex was fired is insane. Or Whaley didn't have to ask because he wasn't supportive of Rex in the first place... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloFan68 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Whaley is one of the best GMs in the industry and a class act. In Whaley I will trust with the coaching search (HC & DC). Let's Go Buffalo!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 The way Doug Whaley is presenting it, his job title should be changed from "General Manager" to "Limited or No Manager." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fadingpain Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Whaley: "I have not thought about why Rex was fired." "I am moving forward. I'd rather put the time into going forward." This guy is fantastically full of ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne Arnold Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Whaley is trying to claim he has no input whatsoever on the decision to fire Rex and hasn't even thought about it. It's f'n comical. He must think everyone is incredibly dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 @JoeBuscaglia Doug Whaley is seriously trying to make us believe that he hasn't thought about if he agreed/disagreed with the Rex firing. What? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reed83HOF Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Mike Catalana @MikeCatalana 44s44 seconds ago This has not been a great day for #Bills organization.

Tenhigh Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Feels like the press is trying to get they Pegulas to have the new HC report to Whaley, so they can burn the whole thing down when it fails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
