Relax buddy... Its all in good fun, dont take it so serious...

Tee hee...
You said "coaching bush."

tee hee!

I just found it exceedingly funny for you to, in consecutive posts, warn Skip about the horrors of losing credibility, and wax sarcastic about the utter ridiculousness of trying to maintain credibility.

Thing is, he's a guy who is a phenomenal success in so many phases of the business, who seems to be cursed at one aspect, the playoffs. So mightn't a perfect position be GM, where he can exert his influence in the areas where he's excelled, and sit back in January an let someone else lift the curse on the field.

My trepidation concerns how his history with the organization might color his future decisions, but that's not to say there isn't a place out there where he'd excell.

Marty didn't really draft well when he was here, if you buy into the coach having a large influence over that in KC. Here is what Marty is good at: Coaching a bad team into a good team. I don't see the qualifications for GM.

That's pretty much the way I see it, Mr. Brock. Marty is clearly gifted as a teacher who can coach up individual players. Apparently, he's also a good motivator. But, those are skills that don't really fall under a GM's responsibilities.

In my view, we need a GM with a proven track record of being able to evaluate talent. Somebody who has drafted well enough and for long enough that the organization can feel confident we can turn around our poor drafting history and tendencies. I'd also like to see somebody with a solid commitment to player development so we can get the most out of those marginal players you acquire along the way.

So tell me Baby Lee, what does credibility on a sports message board, where everyone has a different opinions, thoughts, and ideas actually mean?

Should a select few so called credible ones start dictating the way people think and post here? IF they dont conform to the way certain people think, then they should be banned?

This isnt WPI, This is Chiefsplanet, the best source of Chiefs news in the country... There isnt another sports page I read but this one. I like the diversity and the freedom of people being able to give their thoughts and opinions...

Yeah, that's what I was aiming for. I'm itching for the annointment of overlords.
Credibility is your currency for people taking your musings seriously, nothing more.
You were the one warning of the dire consequences of losing credibility for agreeing with another poster.
All I did was point out how silly that warning looked, like, 30 seconds later when the object of your ministrations called your credibility into question, and your laughed it off as a consequence free enterprise.
I'm not saying it's one or the other, but I'm pretty sure it's a metaphysical impossibility for it to be both.
And certainly there is no connection between the idea of remembering the actions of one's past to judge the merits of present musings and implementing a code of thought process with approved arbitors.

Yeah I got nothing, I was just joking around with Skip, but apparently some people take what is posted as Gospel...
