Who Do You Want to Be The Head Coach?

Is that rumor of Grimm and the Pittsburgh job true? Where the league called and said make Tomlin HC?

I think that's exaggerated. I don't believe the league actually called the Steelers

SS, how pointless, from your experience, is the claim of honesty in the process of hiring and firing in the NFL?

Every claim of support from owners for their HC is typically followed by the HC being fired, every claim of non-contact is followed by the person being hired. It's tiring.

In the words of Plato, "honesty is for the most part less profitable than dishonesty"

There's a fine line between lying and simply not telling the whole truth

Honesty was no friend to Socrates.

If you're asked by <ahem> 'The Media' do you have any duty to them to tell the truth, the whole truth etc? I'd like to think people in the trade would be honest with each other but I understand the need for subterfuge with news outlets and rival teams.

You learn to read between the lines or at least realize there are half truths

"We haven't spoken to Brian Billick about the HC position"

No but they spoke to his attorney...as an example

Yes!! This guy is my sleeper pick, I think he could as good as Shaw and only 41.

To me this would be a very Shanny-like pick and a very Danny-like choice.

Did Cowher lie also yesterday when he said the same EXACT thing?

Yes.
