Legends of the Field - Vince Ferragamo

A little too young to appreciate Roman Gabriel, but he was better then Vince.

I wasn't and you're correct.

While I somewhat agree, Georgia seemed to be penny wise and dollar foolish, she didn't pay Ferragamo, but made a deal for Bert Jones a year later and paid him. She did give Dickerson a contract extension once, but then refused to do it a second time, that just made no sense. Problem with Georgia was John Shaw IMO, although Shaw did hire Dick Vermeil, showcasing the adage, even a blind squirrel can find a nut and a broken clock is right twice a day!

The decision making set up Georgia had was destined to fail, in the long run, and I honestly believe the former players who say that the team simply didn't have the finances to sustain running a professoinal operation. As much as Shaw can take the blame for a lot of that, I have to be honest and say I wasn't mad that he took a flyer on including the top tier stadium clause in the agreement for the Rams to move, because if he hadn't, they wouldn't be back and about to move into this beautiful stadium.
