Crenel fails at the most basic clock management in football. If you can't get that right, how can your team have any confidence in you?

I'm fascinated by this guy. It's so hard to tell if he freaked the fuck out under all the pressure and had some kind of mental breakdown, or if he just was never that smart to begin with. Either way, he sucks pretty bad.Quote:

I'm guessing that his firing was more of a personality conflict thing than a poor coaching thing (although those are somewhat related, I guess).
Keep in mind two games under .500 in hockey is not the same as two games under .500 in basketball. Plus that team was underachieving like crazy. I still expected them to make the playoffs.
I wonder how quickly NHL2night will pick Barry back up. You know they have to be ripping him like crazy over there.

Enlighten me.
Tamba Bay's new ownership is loony. Ask Fraserburn.
Yes, but bad teams can find a way to win much more often in hockey. There are lucky bounces, bad goals and different scenarios that help teams win/lose. Good teams will win more games than they lose, but even the worst teams will luck a good amount of games out.

Not to mention if a goalie gets hot, he can win a couple of games by himself.
Norv Turner.
First, I'd never hire a man who goes by the name "Norv".
Second, the dude has a track record of mediocrity.
Third, the Chargers have one of the most talented teams in the league, and they're constantly being outsmarted and outplayed. Hell, they might not even make the playoffs this year.
