Another coach jumping ship. Kirk Olivadotti meeting with Packers for SAME position
Article says other coaches are trying to leave, but they’ve been blocked from talking to other teams. Literally no one wants to coach here.

If, as reported, Manusky was asking Gruden to back him up in replacing Olivadotti and Torian Gray, it might be that Gruden has asked him to see what options he has. Makes sense and I have no issue with it if it was handled well internally.

The funny part about this is that even if they had replaced Manusky it wouldn’t fix a thing. The problems with this organization are NOT Manusky.
But, why not fire Manusky and promote Tomsula?

Would Tomsula even want to be promoted? His name is on that unconfirmed list of coaches trying to bail on this shitshow.

So now we are in a position where we either tank or draft a QB... who would come to a team with a coach who is going to be fired and doesn't have the time to groom him. Gruden should have been fired so this process could speed up. Even now, I would be fine with him getting fired. I know a lot of hot coaches are off the market, but let the process start. There are pieces. We were 6-3. A new coach could've brought some much needed hope.
And I don't need to pile on the SOB Bruce Allen, but I will anyway. He has to have pics if Snyder with a farm animal. It's the only logical conclusion.

No, of course not!
From Wikipedia: "The Arapaho (/əˈræpəhoʊ/; French: Arapahos, Gens de Vache) are a tribe of Native Americans historically living on the plains of Colorado and Wyoming."

Sidenote: how the heck did you find that?!

On McVay, I don't understand what the Redskins were supposed to do there. Were they going to fire Gruden and hire a 30 year old? The fan base would have went ape shit. Most of you hated his playcalling anyway. The fact is McVay walked into a great position with a overall #1 pick, and a true stud 3 down back.

From a 2011 article by Kevin Cowherd:
"It was former Orioles GM Syd Thrift who famously observed of all the talented free agents who spurned the club more than a decade ago: 'It's like we're offering Confederate money.'"
I've long thought that Dan Snyder is a lot like Peter Angelos in the way he ineptly runs his organization oblivious to the perceptions of the outside world. Now, he has finally sunk to the same level as Angelos where good people won't even accept big money to work for him.
Syd was a huge part of the problem in early 2000s. Once Angelos brought in McPhail in 2007 and stayed relatively away the Orioles began to be competitive. I actually hope that Snyder could learn from that hire good ball people and let them make good decisions. Side note: I am very excited about the new O's GM but I know it will be at least 3 years before they start being competitive again.
