Would Erik Kimrey have been a better hire than Beamer?

No.

I get that dumping on Beamer is the thing to do, and I've done more than my share of it. But I balance with the look at reality. Beamer hasn't been total hot garbage here. Yeah, the current run SUCKS. But he's produced some quality moments as well.

On the one hand I agree that his time has probably run its course and it's time to part ways. On the other, aren't we naive to think we can go out and hire someone to come in and succeed here? After all, no coach in our history has ever gone onto sustained success.

Good lord.

Erik Kimrey. Deion Sanders. Jon Gruden.

‘What can we as fans do to make Beamer a better coach?’ And it’s treated seriously.

It oftentimes seems that this board is AI generated to entice people to the pay site.

Whoever that one guy is who drives 80+% of the content on this site is one prolific / relentless content creator and he's been at it for a long time. There can be long threads where he's just going back and forth with himself for hours. This board needs it though. If he went away it would be a ghost town in here so kudos to him.

Bots I tell ya!

RUSSIAN bots!


But seriously. Bots, fake posters, conspiracy theories. Guess coopie got tired of wherever he disappeared to. I would wonder what's the point of hiding behind a new name, but I dont really care.

Looks like the "you are ignoring this poster" posts are going to make a strong comeback.

You could always pay the money. I heard the pay side is humming along with tons of threads about how great the season is going.

Nah; too much entertainment for free.

Besides, 18 kinda has his own board going. Initially I thought this was something I’d never say but I’ve come to see he’s the most rational and stable guy on here.

Meh, thats just one of his persona's, right? Now that coopie's back, we're all going to be the same poster again.

Do you think you get added in this time for complimenting 18? Don't underestimate the entertainment value in that.

If it wasn't true, you wouldn't care.

18 going from bad cop to good cop is just part of the sideshow.

I have one very simply rule which I never deviate from: If I think about something, I post it.

I think I'm usually fairly consistent on most things. Except for waffling on thinking we should fire Beamer and realizing it doesn't make sense.

Opinions change over time. Ill give you that.

Your opinion on not firing Beamer is just wrong. :)

The fact that we're back to hearing about how we're all the same poster from a guy who admits to being on at least his 3rd account is just a product of the lunacy of anonymous message boards.

But youre still wrong.

Did I mention you're wrong?
