This gif is perfect, WTF did I just read?
He snared Fisch before Grolden's corching abilities were EXPOSED as a fraud. No real coach will join the hot seat now.
Sperman is that rare breed of writer who actually manages to get worse at writing with more experience.
In other words, don't demand excellence in Chumley because it's not his fault. He's doing his best, so give him credit for that, even though it (and he) sucks. Blame those who put him in power and hired him for a job he was never capable nor competent enough do.
In the words of the guy I was backing for the Miami job (Leach) before Hocutt fell in love w/Chumley's pillars..."Fvck that".
While I acknowledge that it was a dumbass hire to begin with, that doesn't give Chumley a free pass. If he knew he couldn't do it by himself, and "his way" wasn't going to work, then he should have surrounded himself with guys better than him that were willing to be key assistants and coordinators...and let them do their thing while he was the face of it all. Instead--he did it "his way", though (per Ferman) he knew it wasn't going to work.
In short--this is the final deflection of blame away from Chumley & Co...and it's ******* desperate as **** on Ferman's part. Weak sauce all around.
