We need some stability.
Every time we fire a guy we look back years later and say "hey that guy did some good things".
If you establish that a GM is only going to get a couple of years they are going to constantly make short-term moves. Why would they not? If they can't produce a winner RIGHT NOW they will be canned.
Stability and an allowance to see a vision through over the long term is what most great franchises have in common
And something this franchise hasn't had since Cliff Fletcher.
So no - let's PLEASE not fire the GM

Ok, let's play it your way.

How do you suggest the GM is held accountable?
