That is an interesting find.

oh dear!one's an inside joke to a small group of friends who are following me, an the other is me trying to be funny with the same group! those aren't anything to do about tfc!
I got some replies on twitter too ... apparently people are putting two plus two together and getting five?
these tweets have nothing to do with the topic of this thread.
Ok, so what's your opinion about the topic of this thread?oh dear!

now: that tweet was all about the topic of this thread.must be something in the beer at the STAR bar
Hey @ H-Bomb, Paul pretty much proves that there is a whole bunch of shit that happens behind the scenes that can't really be talked about or divulged......
firstly it's a good thing you're not a lawyer, and secondly, i'm sure there is, I just mentioned that Lucagol was making shit up
***yawn***.......I guess being oblivious is what you kids are doing these days....aaahh, to be young again....
I'll be sure to buy Paul's memoirs for you when they come out...
that one was confusing
you're confusing....
you try and give lucagol shit, and then Paul basically confirms that their is a lot to be said but can't....and he'll leave it for the "memoirs"....and you just plug your ears and start yelling..LOL hahah you are too funny Hbomb, way too funny!
it made sense until i plugged my ears
but thank you, i am funny
Why won't the NBA let Doc Rivers be his own man? I think they've got it in for him.

Now Paul B posts on Twitter:
Right now about 30 tfc fans are trying to figure out if the previous post was code for what really happened to the coach!
MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto
NBA refs are so shit
Doc Rivers should quit ... why is David Stern on his case all the time?
cause Doc Rivers can't get a better paying job somewhere else. But of course you thought of that being such a fan of logic.
Oh oh oh ... hold the phone ....
So let me get this straight .... Freudian slip by H Bomb. You think that John Carver left because he knows he can get a better paying job somewhere else.
Funny, I don't remember any one ever saying that in any press conference or interview.
it's called deduction, yours were assumptions. As in there are no other jobs in basketball coaching that pay more than the NBA. In England a first team coach will be paid large amounts of money comparable to managers over here.....now take a good five minutes and have a think about this before you waste your time responding
Ok, so I'm deducing that John Carver left because he knows he can get more money elsewhere. His trouble with MLS was just the perfect excuse for his out.
Thank you for helping me prove my point.
You're the best.
I find this statement interesting in light of John Molinaro's comments about watching the team practice this formation and Chris Cummins stating it was a group effort to go with the 4-3-3.Carver said in addition to drawing up the lineup, he made "40 or 50 phone calls" down to assistant Chris Cummins on the bench during the match. He said he gave his usual pre-game, halftime and post-game talks in the locker room and had decided beforehand to have Cummins handle the media conference if the team won but do it himself in the event of a tie or TFC loss.
I could be inclined to believe that the coaching staff were trying to convince Carver that the team could do well in this formation and he was resistant to trying it. Given the poor results in the 2 previous games and in light of his frustrations with the league and fine he received, he bends to the pressue to attempt this formation but indicates that he doesn't believe it will be successful and if they think it will work then they can coach the lads from the bench. He decides in his head that if the team wins then Cummins should accept the credit and glory and if the team loses he takes one for the coaching staff and tells the media and fans that they tried a new formation but it didn't work. When the team played fantastic he begins to doubt whether he is actually making the right decisions for the team, and has a little embarrasement from an implied "I told you so" from his coaching staff. MLS tells him he can't be up in the press box for future games and all of this pushes Carver to decide...they are better off without him and quits.
The assumption is that John Carver is willing to accept that he is wrong but his ego doesn't allow him to let it roll off his back easily. He also has a tremendous amount of conviction and once he realizes that HIS way is perhaps not working...rather than adapt...he chooses to accept he has failed. He won't stand in the way of the teams success...and if it's not entirely his doing...then perhaps he isn't the right man for the job.
You know what they say about "assumptions" don't you?
That they are required for solving complex problems as long as you check them once you've found your solution?
That or something about making an ass of Blizzard?
