Remove Loomis as GM today (1 Viewer)

Trying to figure out why this thread is still open?

I think we should get Cooper Manning as GM ... I hear he was a class act when Arch was at Newman

It's become evident that all the winning seasons were in spite of Loomis, not because of him.

Only to those who haven't thought it through, sure.

Correct. I didnt mention fire because that wont happen. I said remove him. Put him charge of something else

Ah! So you admit you could have been more clear. Well done.

... how he orders Vietnamese food isn't really relevant to his ability as a GM.

(in the future ... Mickey Loomis' retirement party is winding down)

Gayle: Mickey's going to be really hard to replace.

Dennis: Well, Brett Veach's agent called me last week, and said that since Andy Reid retired ... he's looking for a new challenge elsewhere.

Gayle: Well ... three Super Bowls is pretty good. Bring him in, and we'll see if he can pass the true test of a good NFL GM.

(A week later, Gayle, Dennis, and Brett Veach pull up to Phở Tầu Bay on Tulane Ave)

Brett: This is going to be a treat ... I love Vietnamese food!

Gayle: That's great to hear. While this place comes highly recommended, me and Dennis aren't really all that up on the cuisine. Would you mind ordering for the table?

Brett (wondering what's up): Oh-kay ...

(Waitress walks up and greets the table. Gayle raises an eyebrow at Brett.)

Brett: Umm, you know, those rice paper rolls with the shrimp ... those are pretty good ...

Waitress: The gỏi cuốn ?

Brett: Yeah, that. We'll have three orders ... and let's see ... uh ... you can't go wrong with the noodley clear soup ... "foe", I think?

Waitress (rolls eyes): You mean phở ? Rhymes with "duh"?

Brett: Three bowls, please.

Waitress: What kind? Phở ga? Phở bo? Phở dac biet? ...

Brett: ... um ... how about one bowl of each?

Waitress: We have other kinds, you know ...

Brett: No, no ... those will be good.

(Gayle and Dennis share a disapproving glance. An hour later ...)

Gayle: While we love your concepts of roster construction, cap management, and locker-room culture ... we're sorry, we really have to move in another direction. We're sorry to have wasted your time.

Brett (taken aback): I'm sorry I wasn't what you were looking for. Thank you for the opportunity. I'll take an Uber back to my hotel.

(Brett leaves)

Dennis: Gayle, are you thinking what I'm thinking?

Gayle: Oh, yeah ... excuse me, waitress?

Waitress (walks back over): Yes, ma'am ... did you want to order something else?

Gayle: No, no, we're all done. It's just that ... well, while we're here ... would you be interested in interviewing for the Saints' general manager position?
