    Even if he got his health under control (I think he's past the point of no return health wise), he's pretty much burned any and all bridges he had left to the team, and there is zero chance the team will bring him back in any capacity.

    Such a shame, since he was so damn good at his job. But his demons got to him.

    Pissed away any goodwill the team had with him by taking advantage of their generosity. Was late to many many events/games, didn't take care of himself when team offered him help, and there's an incident that I'm not at liberty to speak on

    Cool, fair fair. Didn't know you had some inside info.

    Always liked the guy, so that was curious.

    They're locking Sly in a house with the Blazer dancers for a month. The show will be called "Ladies and the Tramp."

    Just so we're clear about something, no one who posts here or works for the team now or in the past, told me about the situation.

    The team is moving to Longview, and they're changing the team name to the Longview Sonics.
