Gettlemen recognized for his bargain basement shopping

At this point we are far from done. Lets wait until the preseason to judge how well we did.

I was happy with every move Gettle made this off season. There was no "WTF IS HE THINKING" moments that we are accustomed to.

Right. Olindo Mare's contract comes to mind.

meh, if people want to celebrate what gettleman has pulled off so far, let them. it's no big deal. i don't see any sense in telling people how to react or wait to see how it plays out. its not mike they are forcing their giddiness on anyone. same with hitting the panic button. it's not hurting anyone if they do it. i just don't understand people feeling it necessary to tell people how to react or when.

if you feel good about what gettleman is doing, don't let anyone tell you any different. if you are feeling like things are falling apart, have at it as well. so what if we don't have a complete picture yet? enjoy the ride with all it's ups and downs. don't feel like you have to wait till the end.

the fact that he's still on the books for a couple million still bugs me. not sure gettleman would have allowed that to happen for an untested and rather unsuccessful player. too much money and too big of a contract.

I don't even want to think about it. No way Gettleman gives an inconsistent kicker a 12 million dollar contract, lmao I can barely type that with a straight face. Yet there are fans who have the nerve to compare this man to Hurney, utter hilarity.

he acted like we were moving on from kasay, but we were actually replacing one old overpaid and inconsistent kicker with another, except the new one could do kickoffs.

moving on was the right idea. trying to replace him with mare was a huge mistake....esp. with that contract. that was the hurney way, though. overpay a vet because you like the idea of them with the team. meh.....
