Couple of points to keep in mind MG since you've been on a bit of a cranky-assed tear of late where image is concerned.
Most of what you are upset about is only message board fodder. Spend less time here (if you can't stand the heat stay out of the kitchen) and it will lessen your melodramatic perceptions.
Barely heard mention of Rodney this weekend. This will be gone by next week. Just like baby-gate and divorcee gate, but rest assured another gate will be soon to follow. Paranoia and jealousy run deep in a 32 team league where all but the owners serve as employees at will.
Parity is a concept lots of folks hang their employment hat on in this league, and BB is perceived as the single most serious threat to that perception since Vince Lombardi by a lot of people who don't want to be held accountable for the inept product they put on the field this weekend. Did you watch the MNF double header last night? Half the staffs and/or FO's in the league should be fired this AM for gross incompetence.
But that's a story nobody wants to cover. Better to pile on the most successful HC/FO in the last decade because doing so deflects attention away from just how pathetically uncompetitive 80% of the teams in this league are at this very moment.
The ship is fine Mg. Just some of the deck hands are getting squirrely that they have to remain on deck while the captain and his officers navigate through some chop. They forget what Bob and Myra adn Jonathan had to go through to hire a guy the media already contended was disingenuous pond scum and a cheater who took a dying owners money and then like a lunatic tendered his resignation on a ****tail napkin. They all slapped on their dramamine patches and a long time ago, their fan base just seriously misjudges/misinterprets their business accumen.
I suggest those who can't tolerate a little seasonal pitch and roll just slink below decks and curl up into a ball with a bucket nearby until the ship returns to calmer waters or reaches landfall in the Arizona desert in February. Then you can all safely come above decks again.
