All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
I loved where.. hes asked.. "how do you calm down a frustrated fan base in light of the coaching situation" ...he responds (un-mic'd): "WIN GAMES!"
lol
“You hold a players only meeting and get each guy to stand up and say what he can bring to the table... and if he doesn't, you punch him in the face.” ~~ Harry Neale, on how to fix the Sabres season.
Gailey also just said that he doesn't know who he'll hire as coaches.. and doesn't know the roster so he doesn't know what schemes he'll play (on either side of the ball).
love it when the head coach doesn't know the roster, or have an obvious plan for his coaching staff.
it sounds like they called him up out of the blue while he was fishing and said "you want to be our coach?" and Gailey said "why not, right after i catch myself a catfish for dinner, lets talk after dinner about the money"

When I die, please don't let my wife sell my camera equipment for what I told her I paid for it.

It's true though. I got the same feeling when I heard Levy say he didn't understand the salary cap. The guy is selling crap. He has no plan. He does not understand the animal he's working with right now. He accepted a position without any vision of how he was going to be succesful. He's happy to have a job.

Wasn't that the criteria Buffalo was looking for?

I remember all the Billick and Cowher news when they said those 2 were making contacts for a staff.
IT was reported that anyone interviewing for a HC job will ALWAYS want to cover all their bases. They need to lay out who they want to hire (and that they can get them), what their vision for the team is in scheme and playcalling, How the current players fit his vision, where changes need to be made, and what they think of the team as it is.
Apparently we didn't bother with any of that. wow.

Count me in the minority, but I happen to like the idea he plans to assess the strengths of the roster prior to implementing his strategy.
Exactly. When the Chiefs offense was gutted by injury he assessed the players he had available, completely re-wrote the playbook and made Tyler Thigpen look good.
Pity he wasn't allowed to do the same with their defense, or they might have won a few more games.
