Sound_n_Fury Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Oh god...if Meathead 2.0 leaves the Bills, does that leave the door open for Meathead 1.0 to come in and take his place? Ralph is a cheap bastard when it comes to hiring head coaches...he could EASILY see Mike Tice as the best available (and cheapest) HC canidate. 563306[/snapback] Now there's an image: Marv working with Tice....
Ramius Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 While i dont condone the insults fired toward a coach's or athlete's or celebrities family, they are in the spotlight and have to know enough that criticism is going to come no matter where you are. You need thick skin for any type of job that puts you in the spotlight. That being said, Mularkey deserves plenty of criticism for this season, as well as last season. Perhaps had he not thrown to shelton so much, or actually used some of our best players, instead of sticking with his little "packages", or started JP against the jets instead of trying to save his job, he wouldnt be criticized as much. Also, being forced to fire almost all of your assistants means that ownership is basically giving you a 1 year tryout for your job, not exactly an enviable situation to be in.
BillsFan Trapped in Pats Land Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Mike Tice is a wet dream compared to Hasslet.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Now there's an image: Marv working with Tice.... 563313[/snapback] Marv: "Look Mike, a shiny piece of paper...go in the corner and play with it" Tice: "Ooooooooooooooo...purdy...I will love it and pet it and call it George" Marv: "Now, is there any possible way I can bring in Keith McKellar to run the offense...kid's got moxy!"
RJsackedagain Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Although he may still be talked into staying on the job, league sources told ESPN's Chris Mortensen and ESPN.com on Thursday that Buffalo Bills coach Mike Mularkey was in an afternoon meeting with high-ranking team officials that could lead to his resignation. If is believed that the meeting includes Bills owner Ralph Wilson and newly-appointed general manager Marv Levy. Sources said that, because of family considerations, Mularkey intended to walk away after only two seasons, but felt that he needed to meet with Bills management before he formally tendered his resignation. Mularkey had lengthy meetings with Wilson last week as the Bills owner dramatically reshuffled the football operation. Wilson fired team president/general manager Tom Donahoe, re-hired Levy, the Hall of Fame coach who led the Bills to four Super Bowl appearances, and made other changes to the front office. It is believed that Wilson also suggested changes in the coaching staff and Mularkey subsequently dismissed five assistants. In two seasons, Mularkey has compiled a 14-18 record, including a disappointing 5-11 mark in 2005. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2289987

JoeF Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 This is just ridiculous......If this is true, 2 things... 1) Let MM go. He is obviously unhappy and unstable. Get him help, but don't make him be head coach. 2) Find whoever the hell is leaking this crap and fire their ass.
Sound_n_Fury Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 2) Find whoever the hell is leaking this crap and fire their ass. 563324[/snapback] Amen. It's not funny, anymore.
kasper13 Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Why tease us? God, why tease us like this? I want official, final words out of MM's mouth "I'm done".
Beerball Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Hells Bells ! 563328[/snapback] Prolly because someone was hypercritical of his handling of JPL. Apparently the guy really went off on some internet message board. Too bad really.
MDH Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 While I hope the "family considerations" is nothing serious I also hope that Ralph and Marv accept the resignation. This will put us a year ahead of schedule during this latest rebuilding.
wnyguy Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 What makes this suspect is the report that Levy and Wilson are trying to talk him out of it.

BigdaddyinOrlando Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 If he leaves I hope we can get Sherman or Mangini from NE too get us going in the right direction!
JoeF Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Amen. It's not funny, anymore. 563325[/snapback] Their !@#$ing with an obviously distraught man--who needs space and support--its just not a way a human being should be treated.
Beerball Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 563340[/snapback] Seriously though, why would you (try to talk him out of leaving)? Ralph gets to keep his cash, and the team gets started under a new HC one year early. If the report is true do you really want him coaching your football team?
SDS Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Crap! I've got my torch out of the closet and I can't find my matches anywhere!!! Anyone have a light?
