BHA, I've got your back on Cowher. If we were going to get a "big name," he was my preference. His previous teams were more consistently competitive than Shanny's previous squads and that appeals to me. Plus I dreamed of partnering him with Jimmy Raye, who would do Allen's job.

I don't know about the rest. BA, MS, and Snyder have been friends and spoken informally for years. Certainly Snyder, not Allen, chose Shanny weeks ago from the team's point of view. But Shanny also chose us. It was a mutual agreement among friends.

There was a day when such a transition was impossible from Snyder. Even if this transition does not live up to its promise, Snyder FINALLY showed at least some recognition of the right way to do FO things.
