    He's feeling Don Banks heat? Because nothing says you're on thin ice like a 3 year extension...

    He is not feeling the heat anymore than he has been. Nothing really to see here.

    Rex has the effect on GM's. They don't stick around too long, even after they give him everything he wants.

    That'll be the day. No one in this organization is held accountable, ever. I was hoping that would change under Pegula, but it hasn't, at least not yet.

    Compose yourself. They fired Karl Dunbar. It was all his fault.

    I thought Sports Illustrated went belly up around 2010.

    I think it was earlier than that. The only thing people liked about it was the swimsuit issue, and people stopped giving a **** about that when free internet porn came around.

    That's The Sporting News.
    SI is still around, I see it when I go to the dentist. I actually bought it a year ago when American Pharoah won the Triple Crown & it was the cover story.

    One clown's opinion.

    Whaley isn't going anywhere he doesn't want to.

    Sorry to say but Wrecks and Whaley will be here next season as well.

    Now, they both may be fired after that but they aren't going anywhere this year barring a 3-13 disaster.

    As far as I know it was the Pegulas who were fascinated by Rex. Not Whaley. If true, there's no one but to blame but themselves.

    I was thinking Dan Liburd, strength and conditioning assistant, is made to pay if it goes downhill this season.

    Seems Brandon steered Pegulas to Rex from Carucci and Rodak.

    Rodak :
    Team president Russ Brandon was so impressed that he told owner Terry Pegula not to let Ryan out of the building.
    http://espn.go.com/blog/buffalo-bill...ly-prove-false

    Carucci :
    Brandon and General Manager Doug Whaley were the ones who led the Pegulas to Ryan. Brandon sold the owners on the immediate box-office value

    Still all about tickets, heh?
    Owners might change, but, the goal is still the same.

    Still too much about Brandon, imho. That's why I'd hoped for a senior "football" guy, figured that would finally run Brandon quietly into business side, but nah, they bought into him having a football clue that would frost his marketing ability I guess.

    I'd be willing to bet that "senior source" who thought they'd keep Schwartz was him as well. It smacks of his football oblivious.
