Another deceiving thread title.

 

[Ruff]

Hm.

[Gucci Mane]

yea what a sensationalist thread title...

 

dumb.

[Proudiddy]

You guys have to be fuging joking man... are you serious? Fixed it to use exact quote, and yet the subject and substance is exactly the same as the original title implied. I didn't type out the whole quote b/c i'm posting it from my phone.

[Guest Dark Knight]

You should ban yourself for misleading thread titles.

He let it happen. That dumbass bitch.

RR better get used to it......when the "godfather" acts, then that's the way it will be. He could use some polish with his methods and his compassion with players.....which may or may not come with time.

What was misleading about "Rivera not happy about Smitty's departure"?

The quote says he hated how it all happened. LOL. Am I the only one capable of reading comprehension? What is he referring to then? Smitty's bojangles endorsement ending when Jake was released? LOL.

The Huddle wants blood now and can no longer read or think for themselves.

"RAWR! Me want entire story in title!!!arrrrghhhhhh!"

[JJman]

Thank god. For a second I was beginning to think this whole thing was an evil scheme by Gettleman, teaming up with Rivera and Cam. At least I know Rivera was clean.

 

We still have no WRs though...

Ron had no say so in this matter if he did steve would still be here.  Ron didnt want to get rid of steve if he did he would have already done so with old management or at least make ao comment. IMO this was all on DG and it looks like this is how he does things and Ron wasnt happy about it period.  Ron is a players type coach and DG is well he is what he is and players are jumping ship faster than I have seen in years past.  Now I have a sense that free agents will want to avoid dealing with DG.

Shouldn't you be somewhere praying for the Bobcats to tank so that they can draft whomever you think the next Lebron is?  Who do you think has final sayso on roster decisions? The GM, genius.  Go put on your pink tutu and dance in middle of 485 in rush hour.

There is a gigantic difference between "i'm sad the way this went down" and "I'm sad this went down."

 

edit: There's a good chance Rivera signed off on or helped cause Smitty's departure.  But, that doesn't mean he likes that Smitty found out about it basically through leaked media reports and never had anyone from the FO consult him etc.
