[QUOTE="all about da packers, post: 153537, member: 227"] I've been wondering the same thing, but I don't think that is too likely. The thing that makes Green Bay unique from any other franchise in pro sports is that it is in such a small market and is publicly owned. I think it's safe to say that the Packers financial structure isn't exactly like similar to teams like Washington, NY Giants and Jets, New England, etc. IF you have a completely new individual coming in, there'd be a steep learning curve where you have understand all the fine points about the way the Packers are run. Harlan has only been granted an extra year, so I don't think they'll rush to hire just any guy outside the organization, and a proper search for the guy should take a couple of months, so he'll have less than a year to learn on the job. Furthermore, a new individual coming in might not have a full understanding of the fan interaction. I've read numerous stories of how Harlan interacts with the fans, taking their concerns and questions. It is the right thing to do, seeing as Green Bay is publicly owned. However, will someone who is coming from outside the organization have the same understanding of this relationship between the CEO and the fans? I don't think they would right away, which could complicate matters concerning fan interaction and possibly sponsor interaction. I just don't think it is viable to go outside the organization in search for a new CEO. Someone inside the building has an understanding and experience at the stuff Harlan has to go through regularly, so I think they hire from within. But I do agree with you, Harlan says that these problems came to light a while ago, so I'm not sure why they'd wait until the last minute to do something that concerns management style. IF Harlan kept hearing concerns, then I'd have to guess that he'd have acted a lot sooner. Harlan is a smart guy, and would be aware of the short comings of Jones and I'm guessing tried to work with him in those areas for the last 18 months. But kudos to Harlan, if any man bleeds Green and Gold, it is him! I wouldn't mind it one bit if he stayed on for at least another couple of years. [/QUOTE]
