Her husband, and he'll have a lot of say, especially in a business that is dominated by men (owners, head coaches, GMs, players, etc). Katie.

He went to both Dartmouth and Harvard Law. He’s no dummy despite what many think. Just stubborn as all hell.

Troy will see that changes need to be made and will make them.

And you know he is qualified because he is a lawyer just like Mike. And even though Katie will be the boss she will do everything Troy says because she is a woman in a male dominated business, according to you.

Book smart and common sense are often two different things. Have you ever heard the term "educated fool"? I actually know several lawyers....a few in family, and some friends.....most of them are very smart people, all of them are book smart, but I've known a couple that couldn't screw in a lightbulb without instructions.

If they hire a qualified GM, then things can get better. It's not for sure as many GMs have failed. So you have to get rid of one if he isn't getting the job done, but you can't be the Browns either. Then you have to get out of the way of football decisions, and stick to the money decisions. They will overlap some, but stay out as much as possible. ![]() ![]() RE: Confidence in Katie? - fredtoast - 01-25-2018 Well my baby caught the Katie Left me a mule to ride The train pulled out I swung on behind Crazy 'bout that hard headed woman Hard headed woman of mine RE: Confidence in Katie? - oncemoreuntothejimbreech - 01-25-2018 (01-25-2018, 02:25 PM)WychesWarrior Wrote: Well, that's a lawyer for you.

As has been pointed out, she can't do any worse than meathead has done. She doesn't like all of the local criticism directed at her dad, so from my understanding from an interview several years ago, her and Troy want to hire a GM and remain right where they are and keep on doing the contracts. Who knows?? Have to wait to see it.

Exactly. Let's not kid ourselves because the criticism is pretty much nation-wide, but the local criticism would have more of an impact, which seems to be the case because it's coming from her community and the communities in the area. They don't want to deal with all the GM duties when they can pay someone to do it better and bring in more money.

You got a link? I'd love to read all about Troy's plans to hire a GM when he steals his balls out of Katie's purse. And yeah, Katie can be every bit as stubborn as her dad. You know, acorn/tree? (01-25-2018, 09:50 PM)BFritz21 Wrote: Exactly. That family could give a flying **** about criticism, national or local. That should be painfully obvious at this point. People impervious to criticism demonstrate that for you by doing the same stupid, maddening shit 27 years in a row. Katie's takeaway from her Dad's reign is that she can fill every FO position with an idiot relative, pay herself as GM, and still make untold millions thanks to the NFL's idiot-proof revenue sharing. Oh, and if we don't like, then she just pulls up stakes and opens the big top elsewhere. She's heard the public rag on her old fool of a father for years, so I'm guessing she'd love to screw us over. In a hearbeat, matter of fact. Maybe you're right though, and I'm just a blackhearted cynic at this point. I sure hope so.

You know, acorn/tree?seems to be the signature these days considering how many teams have moved cities. truth is that won't happen until the folks in hamilton county are sick n tired of being sick n tired of their shit. and good riddance. she'll be no different than daddy....money gonna money. why would you expect anything different from a brown anyways? browns gonna brown. that's all we need to really remember. i membah! the browns..... flush 'em down. they need to just leave. 30 years of ineptitude and making fun of greater cincinnati is enough. just gtfo a here. hamilton county should reverse and sue this pos but they won't. no reason to believe katie will be different than her daddy. did i mention that katie won't be different than her daddy? that's right what's the definition of insanity? that's right.......

If she thinks she knows football, she'll be the GM, ans she is a woman, so there would be great appeal in being the first female GM. now here this,if she thought enough about this team and has seen how awlful it has been all these years,why hasn't she stepped up and made a difference? she is just like the whole family and will be hard to deal with and make stupid decisions and all that.nothing will change,her input will be just as dumb as the whole family. In the nfl you have to spend a ton of money to be a top team and also have top coaching,we will have neither.The jags spent a ton on free agency and it paid off.can you see the bengals doing that.this team is lacking in a ton of positions.Drafting top players will not cut it as marvin will not play them.Ask your self this,how come all the guys they draft are hurt all the time or from the get-go??its crazy really RE: Confidence in Katie? - Bengalitis - 01-27-2018 (01-25-2018, 11:40 AM)oncemoreuntothejimbreech Wrote: And you know this because Troy has a law degree just like Mike. law degrees???? that explains our situation. RE: Confidence in Katie? - TheUberHuber - 01-27-2018 Since it is somewhat to do with this thread I'll ask it here... How much would the bengals be worth if Katie just wanted to sell the whole franchise? |
