I completely agree but this has been a JB issue for years where he overplays guys, especially when starters are out leading to more injuries. It’s been a common criticism of him for 3 prior seasons and we’ve faded down the stretch every year
Then fire him. Or you talk to him. There is NO reason to do this that is valid, and this kind of thing does not get any kind of positive response.
They screwed up by not firing him but they will. Altman and JB were close and I think it was hard for him to fire him but it got really obvious
I would be *shocked* if this wasn’t a conversation that had happened many times leading up to this. It’s been a JB issue for a long time as mentioned and it would make sense if JB not listening caused the blowup
Koby seems pretty even keeled overall. I don’t think him exploding is in character
You can't say in the same breath that its hard for him to fire a friend but its ok to publically yell at him in front of staff.
I'm skeptical this did happen because I would literally fire any exec that did this because it would mean they just have no clue about leadership, and there's no way I would be in the minority about that.
I said it then and will say it again... the trade for Mitchell was rushing their process and it wasn't the right move.
