    It keeps sending me to a Jerome Harrison interview

    he said most of decisions will come this week.

    I think this is a reference to hiring a GM because he talks about complying with NFL hiring rules.

    John Clayton just reported that Holmgren is meeting with Mangini on Wednesday now. I can't get the press conference because my computer is the biggest piece of shit in the world. Has Holmgren said anything about this?

    Says he met briefly with Mangini but it was not "THE MEETING".

    That is scheduled for tomorrow. Asked EM to think about a few things during the evening for the meeting tomorrow.

    Holmgren just said he's meeting with Mangini tomorrow.

    Has given Mangini a few things to think about.

    He says he wants all the staff on the same page and lack of continuity is a problem.

    he has NOT ruled out Mangini.

    Says GM and Coach need to be on same page and that is the most important thing. Otherwise the team will not work. That is his goal. "To have that feeling in this building."

    Sounds like he is going to work to keep Cribbs 'rewarding players for their efforts'.

    OK, I am getting the feed now, I think there are a million people trying to access it and that is why people are having trouble.

    Is making effort to handle Cribbs' contract. Feels Cribbs should get what he deserves.

    "There's a lot more to how this is going to play out than the last 4 games."

    Will not micromanage, but will hire people to handle GM, Coach, etc.

    Sounds like he has not finished evaluating Mangini, despite all the questions reporters are asking.

    Not tied to the west coast, 3-4 defense or anything else. "As long as you win". Won't coach, but will offer insight into offense

    Sounds to me like the things he is giving Mangini to think about tonight for their meeting tomorrow is one, part, or all of the following:

    1) What exactly did you F up, and how would you do it different

    2) What exactly did you do well, and why do you think it worked

    3) What is your opinion of the players view towards yourself

    4) What happened with Kokinis

    5) Are you willing to be just the coach

    If Mangini answers these questions well and/or correctly, then he stays.

    The 5th question is the most important I feel.

    I get the impression he wants to hear Mangini's opinion of where he would like to go from here, how he sees the team next year and there-after, what changes need to be made, where the weaknesses are, etc.

    Yes, forgot that one.

    So Florio on PFT already has the quote up that Holmgren says Mangini absolutely has a chance to stay, otherwise he wouldn't set up the meeting with him. That he expects that they may meet several times but should have a decision by the end of the week.

    Of course Florio, who seems to absolutely hate Mangini, uses a second quote that Holmgren says that the President, GM and Coach should all be on the same page as clear evidence that Mangini is gone.

    I'm actually leaning on Mangini staying as long as he's willing to let go of some power.
