Right...tell that to Pat Sajak and Vanna White.

But, seriously folks...

Silverman should have been given a 10 year contract for NBC.
How can you fix (not only the television) but the radio affiliates of NBC in 2 or 3 years?

Just the fact that he had to resurrect the peacock says a lot, and took a lot of heat from the old timers at NBC.

Tinker would have never done that..he would have been gone faster than Silverman. Tinker was like a baseball manager with great players. They go into a situation knowing who they have, and that they won't have to do much to make it great. That's why he left later on when he did. NBC hit a low point again, and he knew it wouldn't make him look good. Oh well...

So much for Silverman having set the table for him....
Had Silverman gotten rid of Paul Klein earlier, then NBC would have made quicker strides.
