If Cal was pissed enough with bg to fire him because of the offseason, it seems to me OB already has a built in excuse after this coming season. Right?
His team would've performed better with a "legit offseason."
Aside from an outright catastrophe this year, I think OB just got locked in to be here next year.
Then why not fire O'Brien now rather than fire his handpicked gm?
More likely, O'Brien is the new Rick smith. Very unlikely he'll leave anytime soon
