And in the process made tuition costs skyrocket. I had saved enough money in my 529 for my older son based on where things stood in 2001, plus adding a little more. I was a full year short of covering it all (thankfully he graduated a semester early).

When was he ever on it?

Steve Scalise as Speaker? That would be a trade-up.

Yeah and greed, with apologies to Gordon Gecko, makes people do stupid things. Which is what I've been saying. Meanwhile the polls show that most think the economy sucks. I don't how slowly I need to explain that to you.

Looks like McD got the best out of him.

People talk and say stupid *****/lie a lot. You're a case in point. I've learned to listen less and observe more. And what I see is Joke pushing us closer to WWIII than Trump ever could have.

It's happening in the biggest Dem states.

No one knows him. I just saw with my own eyes that WWIII never came close to happening, unlike now.

I thought it was smart to butter them up. No need for bulletin board material.

No I really don't care, beyond the purposes of discussion. Again, they're not my team. They can keep him for 10 years if they wish. I see him as a dead man walking, whether it's the end of this year or next. You OTOH seem to be suggesting he's safe for the next 2 years. lol

Yup. This is what I said originally: See the "if" in there (I bolded, italicized and underlined it for you just for good measure)? Looking at their schedule, I don't see a whole lot of wins left for them if they keep playing like this. Maybe the Raiders (if Jimmy G is still hurt) or the Packers. Meaning 3-14, maybe an outside shot at 4-13 if they play a divisional opponent tough. Do you think he'll still have the team listening to him? Will that record be enough to save their jobs just because they made the playoffs the year before? I don't know for sure and neither do you. But I don't magically see it improving in year 3 and that means they just get rid of him/them a year later. Who cares? It's not my/our team.

What does that have to do with people spending more than they should and being able to afford less than they used to? Again you're not making the point you think you are, i.e. that people don't think the economy is bad.

"You made it too easy to pull!"

LOL! Been hearing the "deranged and dangerous" for years now. The real danger is with demented Joke.

Walking back a "maybe." How shameful.

The main reason they hired Daboll was for what he did with Josh. After seeing Josh without him and Daboll in year 2 with Jones, they probably realize that he can't just take a mediocre one and turn him into Josh. If Daboll had a hand in them giving Jones a (essentially) 2-year $81M deal for that type of production, it's even worse for him. And if he's lost the team... And sure the first year might have bought him an extra year, meaning he gets fired at the end of next season if they don't return to the playoffs. But he/Schoen aren't getting a 4th season if they miss the playoffs for 2 seasons in a row.

Meanwhile with Joke we see if for ourselves...

Sure it is. Why do you think they hired Daboll? And no, we didn't watch this happen with McBeane and no they weren't fireable at the end of '18. It was a 3-year plan where year 1 was meant to trade bad contracts and non-process players for draft picks/players, year 2 was to draft the franchise QB (gave them a reason to have a bad season, along with the $70M in dead cap) and year 3 was to make the playoffs. Surprisingly they made the playoffs in year 1, which bought them even more time and goodwill, not that they needed it. Contrast that with the Giants who had a 5th year QB and $54M in cap space in year 2.

They also know if they replace Giggles, they lose the POC vote.

LOL! It's not that they shouldn't be stealing cars in the first place, it's that the cars are too easy to steal. Clown.

Yeah but he was hired to make him into Josh. If last year was the best Jones will look and he Daboll needs a QB like Josh to be successful, there's no reason to keep him.

Not to mention convincing the brass to give Jones that terrible contract.

You know when you're getting clowned by MTG...

No, Bolton, who was there an no fan of Trump, refuted them. I don't recall Milley.

True it's not holding them back, but they still wasted a ton of money on him. I get that they were kind of stuck, seeing him have his best season (but not anywhere close to $40/year), but they didn't need to give him what they did and should have signed him to a modest 2 year contract, during which time they find his replacement. No one was giving him even $30M/year much less with $81M guaranteed. And they had $54M in cap room going into this season. They had to allocate $11M for Barkley but the rest could have been used to shore-up other areas. Will the Giants brass have confidence that Schoen will be better at it next year? Do they think that Daboll can do it without a QB like Josh?
