It will be interesting to see how long it would  take Josh McDaniel to wear out his welcome in  the fickle Cleveland organization if he becomes their new head coach.

I think they're going to pick Stefanski

I remember there was this girl that i sure that she was the one I wanted to be with for a while. I put some work into it and it looked like it had potential, then I met this other girl and I knew it clicked much better. In 4 months we were engaged and in a year we were married.coming up on 18 years this year.

Just because you've got eyes in someone initially doesn't mean the next person you talk to won't be a better option.

That while thing posted in the OP, though, was just speculation by someone who is a fan of McD and trying to find some reason for the all of a sudden lack of attention for him. 

I wouldn't put any stock into it or pay any more attention to it. We got the guy Tepper clicked with. Whether it was his initial choice or not us irrelevant. He and Rhule clicked and there was no hesitation. When it's right and you know it, you don't mess around.

26 years married after 16 months knowing each other, nine months of which we dated.

So you got married after nine months...

I've been trying to get the scoop on why Josh McDaniels fell from Tepper's pedestal so fast, and this is the only info I could find.

Like, when a man goes to a table of women at a club and asks a woman to dance and gets rejected, and then gets rejected again by another woman in that same group, Tepper didn't want him because he didn't pick the Panthers first.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.wkyc.com/amp/article/sports/nfl/browns/report-josh-mcdaniels-preferred-browns-job-over-panthers-and-giants-openings/95-e90c2ea3-bd80-4744-ac87-f34d1c93fc22

 "'What I've been told is Josh McDaniels was David Tepper's No. 1 head coaching choice hands down for the Carolina Panthers. The Carolina Panthers were not Josh McDaniels' No. 1 choice. They weren't even his No. 2 choice,' Fallon said on her podcast, The Courtney Fallon Experience. 'Cleveland was his No. 1 choice.'"

So we may not know whether the "[Fug] off" comment ever took place, but we do know that it probably wasn't what either really wanted due to McDaniels waffling---well, not really waffling, but not making us his priority. What we do know is---if nothing but in his mind---Tepper said, "fug that!"

Dodged that bullet ...

That was a good one! Actually, I kinda wish. Not to give TMI, but we had some issues. We've even gone through a miscarriage (ectopic pregnancy), but we were blessed with our one son. He's a 21-year-old "miracle child" because we surely didn't try to prevent anything---ever (if you get what I'm saying).

Understood

FYI: The more likely narrative coming out of New England right now is that McDaniels got shafted by Belichick.

Maybe.

I find it interesting that his (basically) hometown Browns didn't sign him to a contract before he left. Perhaps Stefanski upstaged his "welcome home" party.

What's that?

See the "sabotage" thread.

There were hints of it from Tom Curran but Jason LaCanfora is pretty strongly implying it, and there's evidence.

I am not crying because we didn't get McDaniel. Too arrogant and detached for me.  And I said early on that not everyone might see our job as the most desirable. But karma has a way of working out and it sounds like a true meeting of the mind. I hope Tepper is as good with football as he is with finances.

Got to be better than Jerry Richardson. Gotta be!

I'll add 19 years after 18 months, engaged for about 12.  Sometimes things just click.

Same here.

Asked my wife to marry me after knowing her for 5 months.  Been Happily married for 23 years.

Sometimes you just know when it is right.

To this day I can’t believe she said yes....I really married up.
