The Washington Wizards fired their Head Coach, Flip Saunders, earlier today. Flip , as the Wizards' Coach, had a record of 51 and 130. In fairness to him, He had a team that seemed to be a potential to be a playoff team but the actions of Gilbert Arenas sent that team tumbling like dominoes and set into motion situations that brought the present team into being.
The local sports radio personalities are fielding many calls from Network "I'm as mad as hell and I'm not gonna take it any more" style fans.
One comment that seems to be getting verbal high-fives from the callers- Maybe we need announcers who will lambaste poor play, unacceptable effort and the foibles of the coaches, GM's and even the owner - pure, old school " Tell It Like It Is" Radio and TV analysts and commentators. In the 60's and 70's, Howard Cosell became a wealthy man capitalizing on this very style.
So, How would you respond a struggling and mired in a mess team on the field and organizationally and organizationally hired such Radio and TV analysts and play by play announcers.
