Live from Southern California.

This is the Jim Rome show.

All right, first things first.

Mafia, you know I'm starting with you.

What up, Mafia.

It's been a minute Mafia.

And the last time we spoke, we all seemed pretty conflicted.

Well, we all really seemed pretty pissed off.

You were not happy. That whole make Sean McDermott the fall guy and then promote everybody else did not go over very well in Buffalo.

And neither did. Terry.

Getting backed up on the podium and backing the bus over McDermott,

then setting his ashes on fire.

Look, I get it.

I understand why the mafia was so upset.

I understand why they were so upset.

But personally, I like Joe Brady. I like the

promotion and I liked the move before I found out that he was a clone. So I liked it all along.

But even before that, I didn't understand why there was this outrage over moving on from Sean

McDermott. Solid guy. Solid coach. He could not get them over the hump. As I always say,

if nothing changes, nothing changes. Something had to change. But for every reason,

the Billis Mafia was outraged by that move. Outraged. I like the coaching

move for football reasons, not jungle reasons. Just like I like the move they made today
