Good questions, and my thoughts from reading the article from ESPN on McCloughan is that he has guys in mind in terms of scouting, coaching, etc...

So, I would assume he would want to bring in his own guys for the scouting department, and I'd say by all means, let him do it. The question is, does his GM responsibilities just go player personnel deep, or will he have say over coaching staff, trainers, color of the seats, color of the uniforms, etc.....

having a full and legit personnel staff would be awesome.

i could never understand how we have this rich owner who will do anything to win .... yet it is like pulling teeth to get him to invest in the scouting dept or add amenities to Fed Ex.

i also really want to know scott campbells draft grades. can someone call wikileaks and make this happen?

schneed - thanks. can you tell me your grade of BA just on his ability to manage the cap? id put it at a B.
