This is fair, and I should clarify my posts were only directed at the analogy itself and then a response to what I thought was a silly comment from Pepsi about interviews not mattering because you're not going to learn anything more than you already know.

A few posts later and it looks like I'm arguing against the hire. I didn't like it in the fast paced hoopla when it went down as I was frazzled from another crappy season like most fans. I didn't initially see that he had extensive knowledge of Peters AND a small window to grab him.

With time for reflection and seeing the way he operates, I do like the hire now and feel with a couple more weeks of the new coach struggle phase we'll start seeing a top 12ish team in the league.
