I never knew that Richard and Nielsen were teammates at USC.

If both were doing the exact same thing I would see the problem. Obviously. But if each has their own area of responsibility what would be the issue? I believe you are getting hung up on the title itself, not the individual jobs for which they will be responsible. |

We don't have 2 presidents just because one is better at something than the other, you don't have 2 Wing Commanders of an AF base....Just my position. I'm done responding to your position, let's just leave it there. I respect and appreciate your perspective, you just need to reciprocate. Peace and Geaux Saints!

But, I suppose you may right. There probably is some chance they don't know what they are doing. I suppose we'll find out the details of their plan later. By the way, were you USAF? My dad retired as the 2nd Bomb Wing Gunner here at Barksdale. |
