Nobody said that. What was said is that he won't be making $8-9 million per year like you proclaimed he would.

So you know what the offer was now, do ya?:shake: JFC it's getting deep in here.

BTW what did you have for lunch the other day?

LOL... We ordered in pizza -- It was good. :D


That's why it is recommended to stick with America’s most influential newspapers. They know that sources can be munipulitive, agenda driven and can be dishonest. There are good reasons to use anonyomous sources -- However, we're talking about sports -- To label most of their information as news, would make mainstream media go nuts.

Sports is what it is -- Entertainment. lol

WRONG. That is EXACTLY what was said. I don't know what YOU'RE arguing about, but THESE are the posts that I'VE been talking about:

The source said Hunt did research on the last 19 coaches who have been hired in the NFL and determined their average salary to range between $2 million and $3 million, which would be an acceptable proposal by the NFL Management Council. Broncos owner Pat Bowlen would be obligated to pay the balance of Shanahan's three-year contract at approximately $6.5 million per year.

Get real.


Notice - "between $2 million and $3 million"

That's an insulting low-ball offer for one of the best coaches in the league.

You should really try going to the toilet when you need to piss.

Dude, anyone who can read can look at the last few posts and see you've got egg on your face.

Man up and admit it instead of digging deeper.

Do I have to make a series of quotes as a signature so it gets seen over and over by everyone?

$8 or $9 million, yikes. I thought this was "What have you done for me lately league." :D

I agree with the poster that said, why would the head coach make more money than the general manager.

I agree. But we both could be wrong... Then again, Shanahan can sit at home this season and collect his $6-$7 million salary. Sounds good to me.

Can you just ****ing stop? Of course, Shanahan isn't going to work for the Chiefs unless his total compensation is higher than it would be for sitting on his ass. I think Clark and Pioli can creatively structure the contract so that's true and have Bowlen pay most it. It's not ****ing rocket science.

I'm still here. YOU are the one who hasn't made a decent point. I stand by everything I've said.

I agree. But we both could be wrong... Then again, Shanahan can sit at home and he still will be paid $6-$7 million this season. I'd rather sleep late.

Orange can't seem to grasp that Shanahan isn't going to be offered that kind of money to just be the coach. According to him, he believes Shanny will ask for MORE MONEY to just be the coach, than to be, BOTH the coach AND GM and then tells me I have egg on my face.

Orange is in full mental meltdown mode. He can't stand that Shanny could become our coach, it's unfathomable to him. Read the posts, decide for yourself.
