PFT's headline on this says it all. Yeah fire somebody that works in PR instead of what's actually causing the problems with this team.

How arrogant are these guys? Or stupid? Yes - none of us can see that firing this guy probably has something to do with a major perception problem. THE PERCEPTION OF LURIE, REID ETC STEMS FROM YOU GUYS LOSING EVERY FREAKING WEEK LIKE YOU DON'T CARE. FIRE THAT.

This guy could have been canned for dropping a deuce in Luries office, let's not pretend this has anything to do with what's happening on the field. But, they are an easy target.

It is funny but we don't really know why he was fired so abruptly. Usually there's a story there

He probably hasn't being "spinning" it hard enough. Maybe they will promote Spads.

It's way more fun to pretend we have inside knowledge of the situation and act outraged.

What an arrogant move by Andy Reid and Howie Roseman!  They think that this fixes the problem?!?  They think we are all so dumb that a better PR person can come in and convince us that the season is going well!!  Oh the humanity!

He refused to put a spin on all the injuries so the fans will be sympathetic and will go along with Reid coming back and finishing up his contract next season. You heard here first on the EMB. Bank it, cash it and run like hell with it. Just like all the FA busts!!!!!

It is more fun to pretend. There hasn't been much fun this season so we'll take it wherever can get it.

I hear Lurie is seeking out the former Iraqi minister of information for the job

My cousin's brother said that his sister said that her uncle heard that his niece's brother's cousin said that the Eagles were caught watching the Longest Yard instead of studying film.

I doubt it has anything to do with the team's losing streak. It's most likely another Facebook or Twitter comment he made that got back to Jeff Lurie and irked him.

Wait, he was fired because YOU were watching The Longest Yard?

Are you the VP?

Perhaps the waiting list for season tickets has finally started to dwindle due to decreased popularity/demand for the team?

Something like that, a direct threat to Jeff's profits, would cause a shakeup.

But who knows anymore.

Andy Reid and his entire coaching staff is the biggest problem with the team.

Until they are gone, the team is going to dwell in the NFC East basement.

He should have pulled a Costanza. 'Is dropping a deuce in your office wrong? I was not aware of that.'

Clearly this has nothing to do with football, but it's still frustrating to see, and I'm in the wait till the end of the season to fire Andy camp.
