So marv will be the GM who isn't a GM? I can deal with it.

[ICE74129]

Lets break this down...

President will be ralph wilson.

The Marketing /Non football ops is going to Be Russ Brandon.

On the football side:

Pro player personel: John Guy with more imput from Modrak.

College Scouting/Draft: Tom Modrak

Salary cap: Jim Overdorf.


So what is there left for a 'GM' to do? Nothing. Not really at all except one thing....coordinate everything. Who do we know that can do that job really well? Marv Levy.

I had SEVERE issues if most of those duties fell to Marv, he just isn't qualified. But managing or Organizing all of those guys is right up Marv's Ally. It also is a calming measure to the fanbase and the media.

Now that the jobs have been allocated to the right and QUALIFIED personel, I don't have an issue with Marv holding a 'GM' / VP of football operations title.

Good point. I can live with that. Maybe some of Levy's winning attitude trickles down.

And if MM stays, maybe Levy can be more of a coaching mentor. I can't imagine Marv not wanting to have his hand in that area to some degree. At least he'll be happy with where the ST's are at.

Now keep in mind, Ralph was adimant about the HC not having the GM Micromanage him and or looking over his shoulder.

Man those comments say all you need to hear about what the hell has been going on at OBD. TD HAD to go!

I think/hope thats the idea.

I think Levy is essentially a regulator. Hes here to whip people into shape.

Now if we can get ICE74129 to take over role of Billy Buffalo and have a mascot that snorts, paws the ground and charges it will be perfect!

Great post Ice, exactly what Marv excels at, unification.

Maybe TD can apply for a gig with FEMA. He's good at presiding over disasters.

Basically, Marv as a token figurehead.

Maybe the snag is that Marv wants to be coach too? He's 80 and doesn't have much longer in the business. I bet he would love to help get the people himself and coach them. He would have the power that any coach dreams of.

I hope Marv can make Mularkey into a better coach because I couldn't bare another bonehead year of coaching by Mularkey.

I dont know if its just me, but Mularkey seemed different, like a weight was lifted off his shoulders. Maybe with a GM who will get us some big men, Mularkey won't be that bad. Especially if Levy is that GM. I'm optimistic about this situation.
