I acknowledged that she said it. I didn't deny it. I think she only said the fans displeasure was taken into account when she fired DA for PR purposes. I don't think it's true. I don't know that it's not.


I think at the most she made the decision to fire DA based solely on what the players and staff told her, then after making the decision she thought "and the fans don't like him, so it's a win win."

Could be. But I think it would be naive of us to not realize that owners do care if fans are angry because if they are, they may buy fewer season tickets and don't go to or spend money at games. And the Dome was getting really empty at that point.

But, sure, it was probably just an added benefit in the form of good PR for a decision that had already been made based on record and the opinion of the players.
