This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

For the Packers, it was down to Gannon or Leonhard, by G.K.Chesterton

but Leonhard wasn't going to be available until after the AFC title game and Gannon didn't want to wait and then Fangio apparently started vacillating about whether he wanted to stay in Philly as a DC, so that got LaFleur to make the offer to Gannon. Gannon won a Super Bowl in Philly as their DC but I don't know how much as due to the front four they had there. LaFleur was impressed by Gannon's defense the last time the Packers played the Cardinals. (Side note: the LaFleur brothers play each other in 2027.)

There are a lot of Badger fans in this state who wanted Leonhard to be the DC but once again, the timing wasn't right. Leonhard may end up doing well as the DC in Buffalo. If Fickel ever gets fired as the Badgers head coach, Leonhard's name will go straight to the top as the most popular candidate in the state.

Morris' name came up with the Packers because he and LaFleur know each other from Atlanta, but I have no idea if it ever went anywhere.
