Being a resident of Palm Beach county has finally paid off for me. I have a buddy that works at the Breakers Hotel here in West Palm Beach and the winter meetings are taking place this week, as many of you have seen on the NFL network. My buddy has been telling me about all the people they will have there, from owners and coachs and what not. So, I went up there yesterday........
Lo and behold after walking into this place, (beautiful by the way)I see Joe Gibbs getting into the elevator and instead of yelling out "NICE PICKUP WITH THRASH, HAHA" I just kept quiet. I saw my buddy and we went into the restaurant. I saw Mike Mularkey walking out and I stopped him, nicely by the way :), and told him I was a Bills fan and really looking forward to this season and wished him luck. He said thanks a lot and instead of running off he asked me a question. "Why the Bills, if you live here in FL." So, I gave him my Jim Kelly at UM story when I was growing up and I followed him, yada yada yada. Then I asked him what he really thought the potential of the team is this year and what he planned to do with Drew. He said, Drew will be just fine this year cause there will be less of him reading the WR's, and him just throwing to spots and the WR's being there and he really believes with this D that they can make a run at the playoffs especially if they expand it to 2 more teams. I asked him if there was any shot at them drafting Phillip Rivers and he said if he is there, he would love to have him. He said that the kid does a lot of amazing things at the QB spot. Then, he said that he had to get going cause he had to get to the golf course. I told him Good Luck and we were all looking forward to a great season.
He was a super nice guy and I am officially a Mularkey guy. I think he will do well for us. Very approachable guy and not a jerk like most of those guys can be.
