    Steeles PR but I seriously doubt they'd let that get to those two.


    Best thing to do at that point is to stop supporting the team all together. Don't buy any merch, don't watch any games, don't support any of their networks.


    Long story short?! Speak with your wallet.

    ownership ranked 31st. pretty disturbing if true. pretty much sums up where this organization has fallen to under art 2. never much cared for him from the start but he is the man for now. where are these minority owners? they have always had little say in any of this. about 10 or so years ago they were wanting MT changed and rooney was having none of it. two or so have left and bought their own teams. (browns and carolina) not much is ever said about this as far as criticizing this aspect of the team but since art 2 it has reared it's head more than ever. where there's smoke? after nearly 66 years as a fan, it's really disturbing watching where he has been taking this team. the chief is spinning. :cool:

    I’m experiencing this in two of my teams, Rooney with the Steelers and Hal with the Yankees. They are like chok. Rice in lukewarm water, it has no taste and is fed to old people and babies.

    This Rooney sucks pretty sad for having such a great lineage of ownership previously. Get this guy the hell out of here. Hope his son is way better.

    it's a shame that storied franchises change different directions in part but do just enough of the old ways to keep it relevant. kind of so they won't notice. :cool:

    I hope you are right, but there has to be a critical mass to have it make a difference. A fan or two here and there won't matter. And if they went full on Mark Davis mode and threatened to move the team if the economics suffered, that would suck royally.

    I think Rooney looks at what worked with Cowher back in the day and figures it can work now as well.

    Don’t know what he was listening to.

    Already been announced Austin is coming back. No change there.

    Smith
    Arth
    Azzanni

    All new coaches, not going anywhere. No changes there.

    Myers is still under contract but they showed with Canada they are willing to fire a coach under contract. So maybe they replace him.

    Dunbar has been rumored he may leave on his own. So maybe a replacement for him.

    Hardly big sweeping changes.

    I have figured out the big 'sweeping' changes to the staff. They fired the janitor who pushed the broom.
