Eric Bieniemy is the running backs coach in KC. Obviously this whole process is a favor to Chris Berman so he can bring back his "Eric Sleeping With Bieniemy" line...

 

//Please don't actually interview Charlie Weis.

A few things;

 

1. A buddy of mine is a private pilot for jets. Even if he flies a non-company (personally owned) plane, which he does at times, to offset the costs the plane will be rented out to other people needing flights. So, even if it is a Pegula owned plane, he may use it for others flights. Just because you have tons doesn't mean you waste tons.

 

2. The 48' in Denver. I would assume that the interview process is very long and intensive, so that isn't enough time. At least that is what I have heard. More realistically I think they picked up Gase and did the interview on the plane

Forcing Gase to deadhead home on another flight or commercial? Why would Gase agree to that waste of his time? It may have been a short interview because someone heard something they didn't like, maybe Gase was like "straighten out your FO and get back to me guys" or maybe Gase asked "what's your plan for a QB?" and responded "no thanks, I want a gig with a QB or a high draft pick to get one"

For those interested... Sorry if already posted..saw this on another board...This appears to be the plane Pegula and company are using to tour the country....

 

Yeah yeah I know it's creepy, but kind of interesting

 

Flight #1: Buffalo to Florida (reported that Russ And Doug went to pegulas house)

Flight #2: Florida to Denver (Gase)

Flight #3: Denver to Seattle (bevell & Quinn)

Flight #4: Seattle to San Fran scheduled for this morning. Who's in SF? Rex? Shanny?

So now they stopped at Vail (that's Eagle County) before heading to Lawrence. Someone wanted to go skiing? And who's in Lawrence, or did they fly back commercial and another group took over?

By the way, have any of you guys flown on a private jet?

 

I have had the privilege of doing so for work three times. I could seriously live on one of those. I once took one from pennsylvania to Oregon; door to door it was about 4 hours. No lines, no waiting, just walk on the plane and go.

Its not even like real flying is it JR? I love it...I am a powerball ticket away from a private jet :-)

I think it would be money well spent. I mean, the pilots served us wine and cheese too!

 

But the best part is just walking right on the plane. I clocked one of those flights, and it's easily like a 4-hour time save, if not more. I flew from Philly to pittsburgh once; and we got to the philly airport at 4, and I was sitting in my house in Pittsburgh before 5 pm.

Odd question:

If this plane is correct, could the 1 minute stopover in Vali be picking someone up to bring to the next destination (or even back to Buffalo)?

The latest route is Vali to Outside KC to Buffalo by 315.

 

If the Bills announce a presser at 5pm, we know this happened.

Maybe they changed the transponder like in CONAIR!

I miss this!!!!!!!

 

This brings me back to when we were all holding our breath for Cowher and were tracking all flight out of Carolina

 

 

 

If I remember correctly Chip Kelly's interview clocked it at 17 minutes. it was widely reported in Oregon afterwords.

of course sitting across the table from Nix and Brandon may have had something to do with it.

 

 

 

Nix fell asleep after 16 minutes.....

Many times, but only when there's been a problem with it or it didn't have any interior (very loud and cold).

Obligatory buy a Cessna! Citation X, world's fastest civilian jet.

Why are people surprised that an interview in Denver with Gase could last 45min?

 

Bills - "So Mr Gase, what do you feel you would bring to the organisation as the teams head coach?"

 

Gase - "Well Mr. Manning says I make the best cup of coffee he has had in years, and he clocked me at being one of the fastest coaches in the league getting him the aerial photos and tablets with game footage"

 

Bills - "well we have heard enough......

We will have the paperwork faxed over using the Sabres office fax machine right away!"

Yea, we just sold our King Air this past year. Love travelling on that thing. We didn't use that often anyways and it was really just rented out and used for some training.
