Not sure. I’ve only ever driven through Pittsburgh once, and it surprised me how beautiful it was. So I need to visit up there. I think the family is trying to go to Cedar Point in May and I have an austin trip Memorial Day. If I do Bonnaroo the fall might be a little tight for travel budget except back and forth weekends to my house in NWFL. I think any football travel would come down to whether or not they bring back Voodoo this year and/or if we did Hulaween or ACL. Definitely appreciate it and will look you up when I am fortunate enough to visit there. I’ll do it at some point because my ex mother in law lives in the Southern Tier not far from Olean, NY which isn’t all that far away.
Fuck you Rams. I was reading today that they were at 99.6% winning chance around the 2 minute warning. Haha. I also saw from Next Gen Stats that the 49ers has the lowest minimum chance to win a game within that era (started in the early teens I think).
I grew up hating our foes in the NFC West. I still hate them. I don’t like the Cowboys either and usually pulling against them. But not this week. I hope they send that ass back to the Bay on Sunday. I have less hatred for the Cardinals because I liked them as a little kid when they were in St. Louis. F the Bidwills. I still hope they kick the Rams square in the dick. That would make it two for two. And then the Cardinals Cowboys Pack and Bucs can get about seeing who would have been playing us in the NFC championship had we not gotten so fucking snakebit this year. Fuck.

Raiche would be the first woman GM in the NFL, and I think the second in major American sports. Kim Ng is the GM of the Miami Marlins.
Per your boy Schefter,
"Catherine Raiche, the Eagles VP of football operations - believed to be the most senior-ranking team personnel position a woman has held in the NFL - has been requested to interview for the Vikings GM job, per source.
Susan Tose Spencer was first female GM in NFL history in 1983."
Oh wow. My bad. My boy (Rapaport) said it would be "historic" so I assumed. Is VP of football ops higher-ranking than GM? If it is, why move to GM?
There are four woman owners. Seems like that's the highest position you could have.
No idea on which is higher in the organization. Never paid much attention to the business side of things like that. I would think GM has more power even if it's a lower ranked position, ya know?
Ownership is different as most would think owners didn't really earn their way into that as much as they bought it. It's also rare to see an owner get "fired".

As a title, yes, and its great that they are there. But overall an owner is only a true position of power within a team if you are as involved as a Jerry Jones or an Al Davis. If you are directly involved with day to day personnel decisions then its going to have much more influence on the organization than just signing the checks or giving a thumbs up on going for broke with a free agent. Like look at the Bears right now. McCaskey is now saying the new gm will report directly to him over issues? What the hell is that, his ass just sits around and counts the money more than anything til theres some drama that warrants getting out of the chair..

I'm pretty sure that there's not really a consistent way that NFL teams rank GMs and VP of football ops. I think it comes down more to the responsibilities of the position. Looking at the Eagles front office, Howie has the power and he's EVP/GM, and Raiche seems to have mostly the same responsibilities. With the Steelers, Kahn is the VP of football ops but Colbert has the roster power (well, Tomlin does, but that's another issue). Kahn mainly does the salary cap.
