Frankly, we don't know what we don't know. How many hundreds of decisions do you think he has had to make and why would you suggest he is only 50/50 on those? Based on what, exactly? It seems like you, and some others, don't like the guy and your ability to think critically about it is clearly secondary.

Talk about a drive by.


On the contrary. How it seems to you is not particularly important to me, and my ability to think critically is just fine

This ‘we don’t know what we don’t know’ is not particularly useful. Because we do know what we do know. We have right in front of us plenty of data in terms of moves made, moves not made but reported, and we have the actual results right in front of us.

I am not prioritizing the decisions that I don’t see because we are discussing a sports team which by virtue of how it operates necessarily discloses a lot of information

I didn’t say a coin toss, I said a series of well framed coin tosses

Think of it this way. I can understand the reasoning behind a lot of moves he has made or attempted to make, and I have listened to his pressers and various conversations he has had discussing them, and after seeing the outcome, many have turned out below expectations.

I am not going to relist the rap sheet but it’s actually quite long

I don’t think Treliving ‘should be fired because I don’t like him’’. I think he should be fired because of the decisions he has made, and their results.

More along the driving theme, I think he should be fired for driving this thing in to the ditch
