If we get far enough along and that ends up being what happened, it will have been a soft firing. Those are still pretty distinct from outright firings for obvious reasons but if those reasons don't matter to you then ... sure.

 

And we're not there yet anyway.

 

Sean Salsbury took a pic of his dick with his cellphone and sent it to a co-worker and admitted to doing it. Guess what ESPN did:

 

The all-sports network suspended him soon after, and declined to renew his contract in 2008.

 

That's how they fire you

What we all predicted lol

By the way, someone made a very deliberate decision to drop this on draft day. 

What a coward, doesn’t she know Jamal knows she’s innocent?

“Marshall Faulk, Ike Taylor, and Heath Evans have been suspended from their duties at NFL Network pending an investigation into these allegations.”

Fired/contract not renewed

 

Same thing that's going to happen to Russini. There is no coming back

Considering they're calling out the person who made that statement in defense of Russini ... uh, yeah?

 

It was an ill-advised and strongly worded statement and will turn into a black eye for The Athletic if Vrabel and Russini were lying. People argued against that because something something Jamal's projecting.

 

And yet here we are.


Calling out someone for fucking up is one thing. Saying it was intentional and sneaky goes beyond ill-advised and crosses into a nefarious scenario of hastily propping up a narrative and potentially obstructing the truth.

Right. They didn't soft fire. They got fired.

 

No, almost all of them were suspended and their contracts weren't renewed(or suspended indefenitely).

lol. Not having your contract renewed is the same as being fired. Everyone who isn't a contrarian knows this...

 

Oldschool still a mortal enemy of any and all nuance? Total shocker.

They either signed the confidentiality and agreed to voluntarily part ways or they refused and made public what was happening, as Heath Evans did, and were subsequently fired outright. Contracts did not simply run out.

Looks like their anonymous sources did both. Is it causing less of a black eye or more or what's the significance of the distinction?
