Anyway he and the owner did not get along and have not for a long time. Bottom line
Yeah whatever, i guess you got owner Spanos on the phone and he told you that personally :rolleyes:
This is Pro Sports, there is no such thing as like, do good and everyone will like you.
Butler the former GM drafted Tomlinson #1 with their pick and the know nothings booed that selection, Butler was the man there and very close with Spanos, right before he died he told Spanos that he wanted his best friend to take over his job, and he is now the GM and makes all the calls
Schottenheimer was offered a renewal and a vote of confidence after the loss to New England, he refused, he refused $5+ million dollars, he is a bum and totally deserved to get the boot just for that, then his assistant coaches walked out on him too and made things even worse
The guy has lost 6 straight playoff games, going back to 1993, that’s 14 years and 0 playoff wins, how does that not make you a loser, 4 times in his career he has lost as the #1 seed playing at home as the big favourite in the playoffs.
I’m glad he’s gone, and i’m not even a Chargers fan, if anybody hires him anytime soon i would be very surprised, as for the Chargers, they got some good players and should grab a good coach, Pete Carroll and Jimmie Johnson are 1 and 1a on that short list
