  1. Haha, long time. I haven't been video gaming anywhere near as much of late, got a lot more "real life" things to take care of these days :)

     

    And I will admit Destiny kinda burned me out when HoW dropped and I realized I would have to go through another leveling slog. . .

    i heard the new expansion made some serious improvements, might have to jump in now

  2. I don't know of anyone who was "born and raised a scout".

    I do know of several people who have proven themselves capable of personnel evaluation by working for years as scouts.

     I'm not a subscriber to the goofball notion a lot of corporate America has that if a guy is good at one thing, you can put him in a job doing something else and he'll  be good at that too. If a guy's going to be hired for a job, I'd like some evidence that he can actually do that job, not something else.

    Of course you don't because I was exaggerating
  3. So a guy is going to literally spend years training for a job and somehow he's not a "football guy" that makes no sense. I'll take a home grown successor over a guy with a little scouting experience. That's what you hire scouts for. If he's training for the job that makes him highly qualified. 

    I hate you but we agree here, these other opinions are based on such ignorant thinking.

  4. I get the feeling it's more like the Giants assistant GM.

    The Giants have a guy with that title, but he doesn't have a scouting background. He does some of the 'grunt work' but if the time came to replace Jerry Reese, it'd be Marc Ross taking the job while the 'Assistant GM' stayed where he's at.

    Pretty sure Dave Gettleman will have a lot of say in who his successor is. I'd be extremely shocked if it was a guy who didn't have scouting  experience.

    So you're saying because he wasn't born and raised a scout he's not qualified? A guy can't learn? This poo isn't neuroscience lol

  5. Only other semi-legit person I've seen mention it was a Las Vegas bettor with over 100,000 followers including guys like Schefter and Chris Mortensen. Take that for what it's worth. I haven't actually seen him linked anywhere yet only that Tennessee reporters were saying he was getting offers from other teams.

    You can just say incarcerated Bob lol
