Yep and I'll go one further, he was ecstatic when Parcells failed to do anything. He got what he wanted from the hiring but didn't want more. If Parcells, after taking control from Booger and pushing him into the background, had succeeded, that would have cemented the fact that Booger is not "football man". And for us, that might have been even worse.
We talk about what coaches we'd like, assuming there is a change, but there is this prerequisite list that must be met and at the top is the most unusual of any team. The HC must not have a strong personality. He must not compete for attention with the owner but how many HC's do you see actually seek the spotlight? Most don't want to do the required pc's so that doesn't really rule out a lot of candidates.
What is the most unknown element of this franchise is the involvement of Booger and Idiot Boy Child with the actual area usually reserved for coaches. And All or Nothing did nothing to dispel my thoughts about how much they are involved. That could be a detriment with some coaches but if they are really involved, would that not explain how Garrett could last so long? How many decisions do you think Garrett is allowed to make on his own?
I dunno, maybe it's just me, but if I were the owner of any NFL franchise, the one thing I would want to be known for was hiring the right GM to run my team and even if I did decide to be the GM, then hiring the right HC's would be next. Booger has failed miserably in the first and is among the worst with the second. Just what is "football man" in his mind? Isn't knowing the right "football man" to put in charge a start?
