One of my favorite teams is already run by a dumb****. I'm hopeful it's not two.

It's going to be interesting next year. When there will be anywhere between 10-50 different people reporting from camp. You can bet there will just as many different opinions on the players. The "you must be blind" fights should be awesome.

Hiring the "hot candidate" didn't work for the other team in town so....Personally Pioli wasn't my first choice so hey we'll see I guess.

That's what I was thinking while reading this.

But then Haley's comment after pulling him was "Come on, Brodie. We’ve got to be able to count on you.” I thought was different from the normal tearing down after a player screws up.

Oh shit...Mecca is graduating from GM to OWNER.

When will they be inviting you to the owner's meetings in Miami?

True but the one thing I learned listening to Pioli's interview is that they won't wait very long to make a move unlike Carl who held on for years

Where the **** is AutumnWind. He gave me tremendous amounts of shit over Croyle. NOW WHAT, BITCH?

Oh god not this argument.

Really there were plenty of people on this forum who preferred other guys to Pioli.

The bottom line is that after 3 major knee surgeries, Croyle is NOT a starter in the NFL. He flat out can't stay healthy. He may look good when he knows the Defense can't hit him, but we all know he can't hold up for 8 games let alone 16 games in the NFL.

Hats off to Haley for utilizing the media wisely to generate some buzz about a competition. Haley did a great job using Thigpen as a ploy in the offseason/mini camp to create a worry in Cassel's mind, and now he uses Croyle to do the same.

Very smart...(But nothing more than that)...

I did find that comment interesting. He may be a hard ass but it doesn't sound like he is just berating players. Pulling him and then basically telling him they are counting on him to do better doesn't sound like he is just being an asshole, he is making a point of accountability.

He is also giving Bowe props for improving and encouraging him even though he demoted him.

Croyle's not pushing for a spot.

Exactly.

Sure he is, the #2 QB spot.

Heard Croyle really ****ed up today and looked horrible....no one is pushing cassel even if he is sucking

Yeah, according to local radio... all our QBs look like ass. We're doomed.

But then, I've heard them hype everyone up before... and we were doomed then too.
