The Astros firing Larry Dierker and hiring Jimy 'One M' Williams was a horrible move. And the Oilers firing defensive coordinator Jim Eddy after that debacle in Buffalo. Bud Adams has to be the biggest putz in the world!

I thought that Notre Dame made a mistake when they dumped Willinham about 2 years ago but that turned out to be all right for them. Washington made a horrible when they dumped Lambright and hired that asshole Neuhiesel. That bitch of a AD Hedges should be the one that was fired. But I do not care since I hate the Huskies any way.

Jimmy Johnson from the Cowboys. Technically it wasn't a firing but Jerry's ego pushed him out the door. They would've had 4 SB wins in a row and maybe the dynasty would've lasted longer.

I don't believe JJ was the greatest coach, but why mess with the magic the Cowboys had at the time? That much talent, they didn't even need much of a coach. Even still, Switzer cost the Cowboys at least 1 Super Bowl win, despite managing to win one. Yes, pushing JJ out the door was the worst coaching move, IMO, because it cost the franchise a Super Bowl win.

The Knicks dismissal of Brown is the worst recent coaching move. Brown is a hall of fame coach, and I think he made the right moves despite the results. They gotta give him more than 1 year and show him the door, give me a break.

My mother could of coached the 96 Cowboys to
a Super Bowl victory. LOL!!! And she is not that
good of a coach.

Isiah Thomas next year will be the worst. He is a genius!!
There is not a better basketball mind out there.
