    Their ownership cares about their team and somehow I think that Cabrera makes more than Pauno (costing them more).
    and
    NRod is still here. Lucky us.

    Unless he pulls out the photos of NRod and Cakes with Garber. Suddenly, he's coach of the year.

    The end of the season cannot come soon enough, if they get rid of him after the season.

    Sure, but I would take Jürgen Klopp's left testicle coaching the Fire over Paunovic.

    Hell, I would take one of Klopp's discarded toe nails as coach over Paunovic.

    Note: I would not literally want to take either of these things!

    How is this guys STILL employed?

    I guess we will see how much Joe cares the his purchase very soon.

    1. If Andi isn't going to sell his 51%, then Joe is going to have to put pressure on him into helping him make us great again (Spend/SSS in the city/Hire the right people/Training facility/USL team/get the fvck out of the way/etc......
    2. If Andi refuses to help, then tell him get the fvck out his way.
    3. After Andi is bought out, FIRE NRod
    4. FIRE Pauno
    5. FIRE NRod's hires
    6. FIRE Pauno's hires

    He's a Chicago guys (I believe), he's a billionaire, I'm sure he has some connections in the city, so work them to get a SSS built in the city (maybe bring in a billionaire friend to help out).

    Here is Illinois Billionaires list:
    1.Ken Griffin 11.7 billion
    2.Sam Zell 5.5 billion
    3.Thomas Pritzker 4.1 billion
    4.Neil Bluhm 4.0 billion
    5.Joe Mansueto 3.3 billion
    6.J.B. Pritzker 3.2 billion
    7.Jean (Gigi) Pritzker 3.1 billion
    8.Mark Walter 3.1 billion
    9.Patrick Ryan 3 billion
    etc

    or Maybe he knows people like:
    Jeff Benzo 131 billion
    Bill Gates 97 billion
    or Warren Buffet 82 billion

    Let's see: When we win Pauno has a postmatch reaction on the wedsite, but when we lose there isn't one.:unsure:

    So, I guess that is a positive to losing. His postmatch reactions are cringe worthy.

    He's not quitting. He's getting a pay check, regardless. For him to go away it will take NRod to fire him.

    Probably would hear the same-o-bullshit from him, but no postgame press conference again.

    I wonder if he would just quit? Last year it sounded like he wanted to, but NRod gave him a two deal (with a club option) and probably a raise. It's not like there were teams beating down his door to hire him.

    If only.

    How is that? I read a lot that we all wanted him to quit.

    I do not believe that I read anything that indicated he "wanted to" quit.

    If this true, and he wanted to quit, why the hell would Rodriguez do that his "soul mate"? He should have allowed Paunovic to follow his dream to negatively coach somewhere else.

    He is not a good coach for a top division professional team, but I think the Fire experience has ruined him for another youth coaching stint.

    Well, I guess his job is safe this week, since the Fire are not playing.

    If the Fire fail to make the playoffs, and the odds of them making the playoffs are somewhere between slim and none, they must let him go.

    Being at or near the bottom of the Conference in three out of four years, with a top-5 payroll must be grounds for firing.

    I’d keep Pauno if it meant dumping Andrew instead.

    if we got rid of andrew and nelson but had to keep pauno for one more year, i'd be okay with that trade.

    Sadly this would be the PERFECT time (of course he should have been gone a long time ago), giving the interim coach two weeks before our next game.

    During the halftime show of the Portland/Minnesota game Twellman says: Fire needing a WIN and they take out their best attacking player.

    I know it will be the same BS, but why no post game reaction after losses or ties?
