MJ said that he was talking with Green and he said that (with MJ reading in between the lines):


Green doesn't like all the extensions given by the organization last year.


He said this while they were discussing spots open in FA.

MJ said he is reading in between the lines.

I would assume Green does not like Gilmore.

He doesn't like not being able to threaten the players with their jobs.

I liked some of them but certainly not all of them. Gilmore was the obvious one but there were some others. There was just no logical reason to extend Gilmore like that, he hadn't performed, he didnt' have a big contract, and it wasn't like there was a huge risk of losing him to someone else. Some of the extensions literally did seem like we have so much caproom we need to spend some of it.

To me this is another good sign about Green, he's not afraid to change things. Anybody who's ever come into a new company and said "you shouldn't do this that way" and the answer is "but we've always done it that way" , that's what Green is NOT doing.

Doesn't necessarily mean he's always right, but at least if he's wrong it'll be an error of commission, not omission

I have a feeling a lot of Mac's guys are going to find themselves on the hotseat. Green isn't going to settle for character and effort anymore - show something on the field or get out of town! That's what was missing throughout Mac's tenure.

Gilmore is worth a spot at the minimum as a gunner on special teams and a BACKUP WR spot and that's all.

McGinnis didn't extend Gilmore's contract.

Gilmore and Wakefield.... but they shouldn't have had too much of a bonus that affects their status if Green chooses to let em go.....

Back in the 80s I sat next to Dennis Green on a flight. He asked me what I was listening to on my Walkman. Duran Duran. The Rio album. He hated it.

He did like The Human League though.

Green detests Mazda Miatas. Even green ones.

He does like the Volkswagon Beetles. Especially the green ones. He says "they are cute." His words, not mine.

Green told me once that he would never dance with the devil in the pale moon light.

He's also got a thing about brussel sprouts. He thinks they look like alien brains.

Also, he doesn't like that Dorritos don't just come in "Nacho Cheese" flavor anymore. All they make is "Nacho Cheesier." He says they're "too cheesey."

Rumor has it that he won't stay at a particular hotel if they refuse to leave mints for him on their pillows.

I also heard that he likes Van Halen with David Lee Roth and doesn't like Van Halen with Sammy Hagar.

Green still holds Domino's pizza to their "30 minutes or its Free" deal, even though they ended it 15 years ago because of muliple fatalities to pizza delivery guys
