Default Cowher to Cleveland in a year?

I have read on more than one board that he may take a year off and than go to the Browns assuming Romeo gets fired. I didn't know he played there.

Default Cowher to Mars?

I've been hanging around NASA engineers and I've heard more than one of them say Cowher might be taking time off from the NFL to lead a team of astronauts to Mars. Thoughts?

Sounds cool.
Here's some great advice for Cowher...

http://www.gdnordley.com/_files/Going_to_Mars.html

discusses the trade-off between due haste and ideal trajectories. If we use chemical rockets it's actually cheaper in propellant to get to Mars in 108 days than a minimum energy Hohmann of 257 days. The extra supplies and mass-protection against solar storms (plus the extra fuel they need to be pushed into a transfer orbit) make a minimum energy orbit less economical than a 'sprint' - so long as we aerobrake at the other end.

Most Mars planning assumes 2-year free return orbits taking ~ 150 days (130 to 180 days, depending on Mars' position on its orbit) - no one could seriously advocate manned missions crawling along a 9 month Hohmann transfer. Only under-powered ion-drive advocates ask for longer trip times - like Stuhlinger's slow-crawl ion-drive fleet for Disney's Mars and Beyond" - which could well be superseded if fusion power gets a leg-up. Robert Bussard, of interstellar ramjet fame, believes his Energy/Matter Conversion Corporation (EMC2) has built a working, light-weight fusion reactor - the first models will supply 100 MW with a mass of just 25 tons (4 kWe/kg.) A souped-up VASIMR powered by a Bussard fusor can cross to Mars in just 39 days.

Alternatively a bank of fusors could power a 300 MW mag-beam and push cargo shuttles to Mars in just 35 days.

I hope he learns from his qb and puts on a helmut

Because if history teaches us nothing, it teaches us that retired coaches never come back.

It won't be Cleveland because that roster is a disaster.

I heard it was because he wanted money comparable to what Mike Holmgren gets, after Pittsburgh beat Holmgren's Seahawks to win the Super Bowl. Apparently the Rooney's came back with the loyalty line, talking about how they stuck with him even after all those playoff losses.

My guess is that Huizenga goes after him full throttle to become Dolphins coach. The Browns are going to give Crenel another year or two.

When a coach or player says it's not about the money, it is about the money.

You are wrong. This issue is money. He is being paid peanuts. If Rooney offered to pay him half of what other highly paid HCs are getting, he would stay.
