The ROR fiasco and the not even knowing that Cervenka wasn't a centre was embarrassing. And being embarrassed to be a Flames fan sucks.
Also I hated the way he conducted himself in interviews and at the STH meetings. He is infallible in his own mind.
Worst GM in Flames history. By quite a wide margin.

Not even close to the worst GM...Darryl Sutter was hands down the worst GM in Flames history.
At least Feaster was able to get the team out of the red in regards to the salary cap and bad contracts situation. Feaster lost out on a lot of trades but also made some good ones. Cammalleri for Bourque, Russell for a 5th, Erixon for Horak, Granlund and Wotherspoon.
He cleaned up the organization and stocked the shelves for the future. His returns for most trades weren't good enough in my opinion which is why he's out of work right now. The ROR ordeal and drafting Jankowski sealed his fate.
He did lots of good things and a lot of bad things, but set up the new GM to have more flexibility and hopefully make some real hockey moves. We all know that Feaster relied on others for hockey sense as he was not a hockey guy. Weisbrod failed Feaster and I am glad he was given his walking papers along with Feaster.
