Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 759396">I didn't include Thompson in that conversation to illustrate one aspect of the decision making process:  the financial issue.  Thompson would have had an opinion on the matter from a football standpoint which might or might not agree with McCarthy's and perhaps a foot in the financial side to the extent he had budgetary control.The point is this:It is unreasonable to think McCarthy would have 100% decision making authority on his coordinators.  It is unreasonable to think that even if he pounded the table, other more senior managers may have disagreed as to the extent of the problem or the cost/benefit.Of course I have no idea if McCarthy might have tried to make the case for parting with Capers at some earlier point, but rest assured he could not have just walked into Thompson's office and said, "I just told Dom to pack his bags."</blockquote>
