Taking your comments into account, ...Thanks, Dick. Taking your comments into account, it appears to me that what probably happened is that Murphy had already determined before the game (and, who knows, maybe several games ago), that as soon as the playoff race was more or less ended, he would fire McCarthy to bring an end to the misery. And last week's game got him to that point. So to that extent the whole thing was premeditated.TMF2https://www.blogger.com/profile/04596769766210758712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4436663076867686056.post-27156806668570853012018-12-08T13:18:37.268-08:002018-12-08T13:18:37.268-08:00Everything I see and read points to while McCarthy...Everything I see and read points to while McCarthy was in the locker room after the game he was told (at least one report say Brian Gutekunst delivered the message) to see Mark Murphy in his office upstairs now. Then shortly thereafter Joe Philbin was summoned to Mark's office. I think this is being handled very well. This situation is much, much better for everyone involved … except the proverbial handwringers who think its better for McCarthy to have been left hanging for four more games which would have been cruel and inhuman treatment of a guy who deserves better from the organization.<br />Dick in Wisconsinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10941657246787346344noreply@blogger.com
