The GM Says....

• Denver.....good for you. It was time to let Mike go. He has been a tremendous coach for your franchise but not good enough the past couple of years. His system just isn't working anymore. The small offensive line is getting pushed around and his defensive team is terrible. Go get Bill Cowher. He wants to be GM and you allowed it with Mike. So let Bill come coach and this team WILL make the playoffs next season.
• Buffalo....time will tell. I think you are putting a lot of faith in Jauron. Yeah I know the team was like 5-0 this season but it was just a mirage. The pieces are coming together but you are still a few players away from competing. But I can understand keeping him on.
• Jets....ouch! Bill Cowher doesn't want to coach your team. HAHA! Actually I think the coaching thing would be fine but he is only going to come if you fire your GM which you probably aren't going to do. So now what....you gonna hire Romeo Crennel since the Browns are talking the Mangini. Should we just play musical coaches? Go hard for Steve Spagnola....he will be a difference maker.
• 49ers....excellent decision. Mike Martz and Singletary are not compatible. There was no reason to keep a has been coordinator on the staff. Go out and find an innovative ambitious younger guy to build the offense that he wants. Just give the coaching staff time to turn things around. You can't be firing guys every 2 years and expect to win.

• Oregon....impressed. I am impressed with the way you handled Okie State. I know it wasn't a completely dominating performance but it was very good. I thought the Cowboys were the better team and I thought they would win. Maybe if Dez Bryant doesn't get hurt they do but Jeremiah Masoli is the real deal at quarterback...he will be good next year.
• Western Michigan....what?? Where was the offense? You were going up against one of the worst defenses in the entire country and you managed 14 points! I really thought this game would be a much better game to watch but alas the Texas Bowl again fails to fulfill. Good thing you were only on the NFL network and I got to watch the Holiday bowl instead.
• Robert Marve....bye bye! You just did Miami a favor. Jacory Harris out played you all season when he was comfortable. The problem was that he wasn't comfortable most of the season. But with you transferring he can come in as the starter and not have to worry about anything. Miami WILL CONTEND for the ACC Championship next season without you!

• Celtics....do you suck now? All of a sudden you look human and beatable. I got bad news for fans out there....I don't think this is just a road trip slump. I think teams are learning what it takes to beat them and it will continue when they return home. You are still one of the best teams in the league but you better fix whatever ails you or come playoff time you will be in trouble.

• College Basketball.....I guess I should watch now. I haven't really been paying much attention to the college basketball season but apparently I should be. Top teams are losing all over the place as 4 Oklahoma went down yesterday in a blaze to Arkansas. And Purdue lost as well. This after UConn lost the other day. With the exception of North Carolina are there any other great teams out there?

• NHL....I am trying. I am trying to follow the NHL more as I am a huge hockey fan but because the sport is so crappy on TV I find myself not knowing anyone in the Western Conference. I know my Capitals are doing very well having won 9 of 10 but I don't know anything else. But maybe you will get me tomorrow with the Winter Classic. I thought last year's sucked to be honest cause the hockey was terrible but I am hoping the weather cooperates for you tomorrow at Wrigley field.
