    Gotta like the hire; I feel better knowing Bradley prolly wanted to stay in SD

    So it was Petting or Fangio (who might not have come anyways)

    HIRING A PERSONNELL GUY over the Cappie Guy


    Gotta like it.
    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 ?

    Greg Bedard, whose reporting was far superior to his punditry or offensive line coach predictions, has a great piece about how Pettine installs his defense in Cleveland, down to the thin playbook so that when the Patriots steal it, there won't be much revealed.

    There are double quotes which are apparently an artifact of the article formerly being on MMQB and not being on SI's new platform.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    How Mike Pettine's career gamble transformed him from a high school coach into coach of the Cleveland Browns


    Updated on January 26, 2014 at 7:42 AM Posted on January 25, 2014 at 3:20 PM

    BEREA, Ohio – " ...Twelve years ago, Baltimore Ravens coach Brian Billick sat in a room with Mike Pettine and begged him not to take the entry-level position he was offering.

    Why would a successful high school football coach in his 30s with a wife and small kids leave the security of a good teaching job in suburban Philadelphia to work in the Ravens’ video-operations department?..."
