[SparkyDevil]

The more names I hear that are not Brandon Beane, the happier I am.

Yep. Second tier candidates.

Give me John Idzik from Seattle PLEASE!!!

[DangerClose19K]

hopefully this guy can live up to his name...

I think George Paton would be a good fit for our team.

[Keith Moons Liver]

I'd prefer George Patton- he wouldn't stand around for JR's bullshit. Paton, however, will likely be a yes-man just like Hurney.

[BeasonBeastingBacks]

Good choice to interview

Likely the first of many such jokes to come...



(one of my uncles served under Patton and hated his guts)

Someone from the "he's just gonna hire Beane" crowd will have to explain to me why we'd be bringing in more candidates if that's the case. Person says there should be a total of five or six.

Probably tomorrow night (both Paton and Lake Dawson)

[Mr. Scot]

Couple of quick cursory notes from his bio...

His name is pronounced like Payton (ugh).

He worked for the Bears scouting department while Rivera was a coach there.

Also worked for the Dolphins while Shula was there.

Yep. Second tier candidates.

aka "I've never heard of him so he's a tier candidate"

[CatMan72]

Hopefully this is an example of due diligence...

[DoubleTrouble34]

Yep. Second tier candidates.

Then what the heck do you want? Oh yeah I forgot, Marc Ross. My bad...
