NESN's Bob Rodgers Fired!!!!!!

[PissedPrincess]

For leaving Spring Training to coach his HS basketball team's game.:cry:

I really liked the dude. Who's gonna do Xtra Innings now?

[rockin500]

talk about a lame reason to fire someone. cuz he coached his son's HS game?!?! its freakin spring training. not the regular season.

[PissedPrincess]

Not his son's, he has no kids. He coaches a HS team in the winter, and this was a playoff game.

Here's the problem Ray, he was supposed to be interviewing Pedro and Nomah, and instead, didn't. He taped a fake show, and left without telling anyone.

[rockin500]

oh. but still, even though its not his kids, it doesnt matter. you cant expect the guy to stop coaching in the playoffs.

i guess leaving without telling anyone was a bit much, but suspend him, dont fire him. unless he has done fake reports before? :notme:

[PissedPrincess]

I woulda suspended him too, firing was too harsh.

I'll miss him.:cry:

[PissedPrincess]

I think Babs should replace him.:cool:

Bring it on!

I think it's crap that they FIRED him over this. :hmm: He should be disciplined, but a firing is a bit harsh. Who they gonna get now? Maybe Sean McDonough. :D

No clue. Maybe Eck will do it full-time?:notme:
