So the Eagles tried to hire

[slag]

Gase, who said fuck you and went to Miami ...

McAddo who said fuck you and went to the Vagiants ...

and Coughlin who said fuck you and didn't even give a shit that he had no other job to go to.

We supposed to believe that Doug the Boobie Prize was their master plan all along?

[Snakebitten]

I think they wanted Pederson all along.

[slag]

So the Coughlin frenzy was what?

[TRENT]

they were never going to hire him

So the Coughlin frenzy was what?

smoke screen Philly

[slag]

Uh huh

[Snakebitten]

So the Coughlin frenzy was what?

I think the 'Coughlin frenzy' is another example of how bad the media is. The speculation from the media was/is unbearable. It's hard to believe anything.

Don't forget the last minute in a tizzy phone call to Hue

who said Fuck you and didn't even bother to show up for an interview.

[slag]

Come on now ... they didn't make up the fact that he was invited back and withdrew his name after a second meeting.

[Snakebitten]

The same media speculated today that he may have withdrew his name once he realized they wanted Peterson all along. He eventually saw the writing on the wall, wanted to save face, and beat them to the punch. While I don't believe half the shit I hear, it's not far-fetched.

Come on now ... they didn't make up the fact that he was invited back and withdrew his name after a second meeting.

I have no idea what they make up anymore. A frenzy can easily consist of one bad source and a handful of hack "journalists" knocking each other over to get their scoop onto Twitter first.

Over a week ago, it was reported that Pederson was the frontrunner for the job. Maybe that report was actually correct, and the rest was just a clusterfuck of bad reporting.

[slag]

Lurie and Roseman are fucking dweebs and this looks like the league knows it and only the bottom of the barrel is interested ... and that makes more sense to me than Pederson was the plan all along.

If that's the case, why did it take three weeks to hire him?

[slag]

Gase interviewed ... McAdoo interviewed ... Coughlin had multiple conversations ... then Coughlin withdrew his name. I find it hard to believe the media got that wrong.

Despite this Pederson was the master plan?

So, Duce was interviewed for Rooney Rule compliance and they did all this other shit to make the fans think they due diligence-ed before they took the guy Lurie wanted all along to further the nitwit agenda of a Reid-tree guy being the key?

Well, that doesn't make me warm and fuzzy, as I see it as bad as they tried to get a bunch of people who had a clue and were turned down so they settled for Booby Prize Doug.

Fuck ... now I have to hope they're blind squirrels who found a nut.

[Irish George]

sure that's the ticket

they were never interested in Coughlin. OK

[Irish George]

based on what?

I think they wanted Pederson all along.

what makes you think that

[Snakebitten]

If that's the case, why did it take three weeks to hire him?

The playoffs? Shit, who knows? Maybe they figured Pederson would be available but took the extra time to test the waters. Nobody really knows the truth. Don't forget, these same dweebs got Chip Kelly.
