That was not what thunder was asking. Teams do fire their coaches 1 yr after inking them. How can you know that they would be good if they didn't get more than a yr. Jimmy Johnson was 1-15 his first yr. So had Jerry knee jerked it they may have had no SB's down there. Also how many HOFers would not have made it in for them?

Agreed. Players fall off more as they age. It is best to cut ties.

Miami and Cleveland off the top of my head have fired a coach a yr after signing them. It happens.

Totally agree.

I think Harbs had 3 yrs left on the deal so he wasn't going anywhere.

He was snowed by Billick. He game him a new contract for nothing. He keeps doing it now.

He may have decided to stay when he was younger. The way the Sun is falling to crap he is limited now but 20 yrs ago o so I am sure he could have gone elsewhere.

That is why I have alwasy said Billick would be great at it. He could talk a family into anything. Except some people son't seem to know how to grease those wheels. Some guys are just football and nothing else. When you have to show an owner some nonsense that he thinks is true then you sell out. Also you have to know what BS this owner believes and the other BS from somewhere else.

No matter what Suggs is gone. He would have to wrok out a very friendly deal and I do not see that.

So he doesn't like the town he is from. If he so hated bmore why is he still here. I am sure he had optionns elsewhere.

Sure eventually the Owner figures out he was duped.

I would say he likes football too. He did play it all the way to college.

Sure. I have the same opinion when they are hear or not.

No he is not a beat writer. He is a columnist. Again he is doing what Skip did in Chi at a paper there. The job of a columnist is to prod the public and push buttons.

Sure When things aren't going right for John he just has stupid looking faces.

Why do that?

The Giants fired two position coaches today. They didn't fit what the new OC wanted to do.

You don't know if it will be the same until the games start. You can have the same parts and two different guys calling the D and get wildly different outcomes.

That kind of rational thought would be unwelcome in bmore.
