Won't say that good folks don't get fired in these shakeups because they do. Still if he was that great then why was he fired?

Because the Texans changed GMs and he was part of the old regime.

That kind of thing happens on a regular basis.

It also doesn't happen on a regular basis.

For instance, when the incumbent personnel are judged to be too good to lose, as opposed to random friends of guys who are friends of guys who know guys who are friends with guys or sons of other guys.

Sure it does but just as often they keep folks as well. Gettleman didn't clean house when he came in and get rid of Beane for example. It isn't a given everyone leaves..

No, but it also doesn't mean they're awful at their jobs. Lots of good people have been booted after GM changes only to find other jobs and excel at them.

Heck, a pretty good number of people who get coaching or front office jobs in the NFL have at least one firing in their past.

Do you realize no body is paying you any attention at all?

That's sort of the nature of pearls before swine.

They root around, snuffle a bit, oink and f*ck, occasionally eat a pearl by mistake. But basically there's a disconnect.

I appreciate your concern, but it will be hard for us to help them, friend.

Actually I think getting fired at least once in your life is a good lesson which teaches you many things. And you are right that you can do a good job and just be in the wrong place or circumstance and get fired. Too often whether you get hired for a job or get fired from a job seems to sway people's opinion about the quality of the job they did and that is too restrictive. Reminds me of the whole Hurney sucks because no one rehired him mantra used around here.

Troll that he is, he has some originality,  and I find him a more enjoyable poster to read than someone like yourself who is all about " look at me "

Shocking from the person who just last week disregarded the letters posted by Jerry Richardson's victim and said this was nothing but accusations. I prefer people like you don't prefer me.

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      Canes vs Rags 7pm

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
