You know that really long handled tool thingy they use to cut branches off trees 50 feet up while standing on the ground? I don't know why, but that's all I could picture when I was reading that.
First off, I'm not bashing the old fart in this thread, so much as I am asking why all the publicity is going to this "coach search", when hiring a coach THEN a GM seems disastrous to me. No, what this strikes me as, and the reason I started this thread, is that Ralph is just appeasing the masses by hiring another coach and opening up his cobweb-filled wallet to pay for it, but his Front Office, the REAL PROBLEM (as much as he, himself is the problem) will remain exactly the same as it is now, and thus nothing good will come of it. But the appeased masses will have already bought their season tix for next year by the time we all realize what happened.
OK, so maybe I am bashing the old fart. He deserves it. He's a snake.
