    He was probably getting too much attention; they don't like that.

    Cant wait to see how Crapzano will spin this.

    It's been a tempest in a teapot all along. I wouldn't be shocked to see overreaction to this :)

    Of course they aren't renewing his consultant contract. Why would they?

    As GM, he'll be a full-time employee.

    HCP says he'd never seen Hat Guy prior to this year, and suddenly he's going on road trips.

    Next thing you know, he's let go.

    Apparently the way to succeed in a Paul Allen organization is to do as little work as possible, and kiss Paul's ring at least once a week.

    Looks like Bert Kolde won this power struggle. Whoopie.

    I heard he made an embarrassing mistake when teamed with PA vs. Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer in a spirited game of Klingon boggle.

    He tried to conjugate "to be", which you can't do in Klingon...

    Their first choice was Ear Muff Guy, but the Spurs just locked him up for another three years. You snooze, you lose!

    You've made a career of ridiculing Hat Guy, but when Paul Allen does your bidding, you still find a way to turn it against him.

    This guy was just seen entering the Blazer PF through a back door. :dunno:

    Looks like PA is killing two birds by combining Pipe Guy and Ascot Guy.
