Everywhere else when you fail you are dumped. Again it comes down to the Reinsdorf’s valuing personal relationships over actually winning games. I hope this new guy is the answer because he has likely has a job for the next 15 years regardless of performance.
this is true, he does have to be the right guy because Reinsdorf gives plenty of rope. That is both a good and a bad thing. Better than Dolan who no one would want to work for because he throws people under the bus but also frustrating when a change is clearly apparent needed to be made. AK is going to have his shot for sure, for better or for worse. If we aren't over .500 the first ten games next season, I expect plenty of Fire AK threads! I am actually already starting a go fund me for the fire AK billboard! Jerry is not a dolt though. Williams was a good GM until he wasn't, same with Krause and Paxson. His hires weren't bad he just held on too long in all those cases. Michael to me seems like a dolt, this is his show now lets see how this goes forward. It literally can't be any worse than what it is. Even the 99 season wasn't this painful.
