Its about the bigger point, which is appeasing your shareholders - the fans. Someone needs their ass fired. This happens in business all the time.



This rarely, if ever happens. Know why? Because this type of season happens, that's why.

This is a prime example of why that is a ****ing reeruned solution. Just because you have an interim coach/gm doesn't mean shit in terms of retention. You need a solid decision maker to recognize this.

Scott is not a solid decision maker.



Carl got his ass fired, because he wasnt performing well. As he damn well should have. Everyone rejoiced. It made no difference on the outcome of the season. What's different from this season? What do we "gain" by waiting? NOTHING. What do we "gain" by firing him now? NOTHING - except happy customers (fans).



If those preparations are being made, interviews and such, why do it in the dark and be discreet, with the risk of a huge PR fiasco and Lame Duck speculations? Why allow Scott the time to make preparations, communicate with staff, etc... if you know he's leaving? If you know he's gone, you make him pack his office and escort his ass out. That's how business works.

Firing him now does nothing, but it does make the fans are happy.

Firing him later does nothing, absolutely nothing good.

You're completely delusional if you think the fans are the shareholders.
