Strunk'sDessert Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 Borgonzi is a more talented GM than Brinker because Borgonzi is a GM, not because he outsmarted Brinker. Talented people leave good roles quite a bit for various reasons. It can be that simple. For dicks sake, I hope I don't sound like Jamal.

Putting a family member in charge of the business end of the franchise doesn’t really affect the fans much. They could raise the prize of a beer too much or pick bad music for the game day experience, but they aren’t going to significantly alter whether the team wins or loses games.

tgo Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 (edited) Wasserman may gain some stature, but he really could fill Brinker’s shoes operationally from a Sr Director of Football Operations position - would not need to be a VP level equal with Borgo. I did see that Chris Polian was leaving the Falcons, he worked here before under Marino and would be a good fit for this type of position. Another note here - Leland Taylor actually out ranks Wasserman in the Football Ops hierarchy Edited April 29 by tgo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is horrid and this is long overdue. Both be and Callahan should have been gone before 2025. SuperFreak90, and IsntLifeFunny 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had many reasons for not following through with my PSL agreement, amigo. If they put the nephew as President that's the nail in the coffin for my run.

Ehhhh - it’s like administratively managing the football team. To me, business side is marketing, ticket sales, legal, NFL relations, stadium operations IsntLifeFunny, and Callidus 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starkiller Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 There’s also a chance that Ken IV would be more involved in the day to day operations as part of a replacement plan for Brinker. Entirely speculative on my part, mind you… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not unless you are related to Brinker… SuperFreak90 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justafan Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 I never understood why Brinker seemed to get a pass during all of the bad decisions of the past several years. I know it’s just operations but I’m kinda glad to see them move on from that era. Omar, bondra316v2, titansfan, and 1 other 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a family run business. I don’t want some nepotism hire making all the personnel decisions. But running the stadium and the corporate decisions? That’s not important to me in general. How long until he wants to be over Borgonzi? How long until he wants to hire his own GM? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
