charlie, and all... i hate it too. and i dont want them to hire anyone, or interview anyone simply because they HAVE to because of a race quota, or whatever.
i think rome's is GREAT, i think belichick will miss him, and i think the raiders shoulda worked to get him... norv is a pock marked joke. i dont want to get started on that move. i halfway think it might be time for ole al davis to hang it up and let the team move on.. but thats just me. i just think its funny that there was no HULLABALOO about that, but man, if they hired joe whitebread off the cuff, and didnt interview an african america coach, you KNOW that there would be all kindsa shit... thats all.. tw On Tue, 15 Feb 2005 22:21:15 -0500, Charlie Griefer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > im mostly playing devil's advocate here, because i also hate the > minority interview thing... > > ....but if i'm in need of a head coach, i don't have to look any > further than Crennel.
