LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?
Its illogical to feel so wronged that you leave and make a lateral move to another organization who might not hire you to be GM later. Especially when there are 3 of you who are candidates on the same team. Stay and work yourself up.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
They have been doing that and waiting in the wings. Wolf and Gunekunst are both at risk of leaving; to be honest if one is hired over the other the one not hired might leave. They both get interviews and looks each year.
I'm not sure anybody has ever looked at Highsmith though.
I'll take any outside Joe over Russ Ball. We've always had good capologists in Green Bay. There are plenty out there.

It happens in football, basketball and baseball.
Milwaukee Bucks last year

The Bucks hired the guy and told him he was the heir apparent. When his boss retired, they hesitated to give him the job.
That is different than three executives all being eligible for a promotion in the organization. They cannot all have been promised the job.

I don't recall them telling him that but I think it was silently understood that was the plan
And it would not surprise me if somebody in GB was given that impression hoping they'd hang around.
Had anybody even interviewed Russ Ball for anything ? No reason to promise him a thing. The personnel guys are the worries.
Would not surprise me if MM wanted to move on this in fear he loses one of the two who keep getting interest.

Ball has had interviews denied by the Packers
Mickey Loomis is another cap guy in New Orleans.

Can't find the reference for Ball being denied interview requests from outside the organization. Might have made that up.
But one thing I was reminded of going back, Ball's connection inside 1265 is to McCarthy. Ball worked for the Chiefs with M3, got suggested to be the cap guy for the Saints via McCarthy and probably got a recommendation in GB from him.
Ted and Murphy clearly fell in love with him as he has kept accumulating responsibilities, titles and salaries. But Ball could be the most likely to hang on to McCarthy.
