OT: Harold Reynolds Fired

A disagreement won't get you fired, just moved somewhere else.

Sure it can. I fired someone over a disagreement. The employee is considered hostile. More people get fired over disagreements than for any other reason. This a more believeable reason the sexual harrassment.

Your employess are probably not under contract. Almost impossible to fire a person with a contract. They usually just move them.

Wasn't there a harassment scandal with Mike Tirico a few years back?

It is easy to fire someone under contract. There is always a escape clause in a contract. Plus CT is not very friendly to employees.

Why would ESPN get rid of one of the best analysts in baseball if something was not amiss? I dont like baseball that much but this is a guy I can listen to all day. Something had to be messed up.
If I actually watch the guy, he has to be a big draw. Heck my wife and daughter will even listen to him when he does his little detailed proper position stuff for different situations. They were actually listening and understanding about different stances and bat positions for different players and why they all seem to work well. very good basic stuff.

You dont get rid of a guy like that for no reason. He has got to pull people to the set. Definite $ analyst.

Oops and I just realized I responded to something that probably needs to be in another section...

oh the humanity!
