I'll put it in other words. I'll bet you make a fraction of what Pioli does. It doesn't take terribly long to learn what you do, I have a basic understanding of what you do, I've taken a Basic Aviation course, and yet I'd guarantee the gulf in results between me flying and you flying is far beyond that of me picking players and a guy making $5 million.
Think about that for a second.
If you can't see that disconnect, I don't know what to tell you.

My question to you is, Why are you not an NFL scout? If you can prove your track record, why dont you leave here and do something that you feel you have a knack at. You seem to have the passion for it.
I dont need to hear how great you are and how "spot on, as usual" you are... I would like to see some real life results, not message board I told you so's...
You are right, it doesnt take terribly long to do what I do... Most people who want to become airline pilots spend around 3-4 years getting a degree and building enough hours and experience to get to a small regional airline. Then some people can pay a serious amount of cash and fast track it. But normally people go to school get all the ratings, instruct new students, build time and real life flying experience. Then move on to the intense type rating for an airline. After landing at a Regional, they spend another 3-7 years of flying some crappy schedule and training before they can be picked up by the big boys.... Then the intense type rating training starts all over.. So to get to the Pinnacle of your flying career, it normally takes around 10 years or so...
For me, I am chose to stick with the corporate life. I fly less, make a fraction of with Pioli makes. But for me, life is pretty dang good.. No complaints here.
Hell in my opinion, I am a better GM that Pioli, I would of drafted Sanchez not Jackson nor would of I traded for Cassel...
