minutemancl Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 A buddy of mine is in-the-know for sports franchises due to his job. He told me some stuff at NYE last year about the Houston FO that seems to be brought up in this article. Crazy, crazy stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texans Character Coach and interim GM. This read is pretty chilling as a fan. From tampering to illegal workouts to an atmosphere that is pretty much Orwellian in nature, Jack Easterby seems to be in the center of it all. Even ahead of Bill O'Brien. I'm sincerely worried about my team, simply because it doesn't matter who the new HC/GM is... as long as Jack is here, nothing is safe. Curious to get others' takes on this. Fantastic piece. As I was reading all I could think of was how closely his situation and behavior mirrored Pioli’s during his time as the Chiefs GM. Low and behold, it turns out he was part of Scott’s disastrous tenure in KC. Us Chiefs fans were saved by the fans demanding better and having a good owner who heard us. Hopefully you guys rid yourselves of this dude. He sounds like the type that will almost certainly sabotage your coach and GM search. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevermind how disruptive it can be to the team, it's all about him. Those are dangerous people to any organization, not just a football franchise. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanedorf Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 speaking of Easterby - I've been told that JJ Watt loathes charlatans... I'm sure he'd be much happier in Green Bay, WI where our faith is limited to worshiping beer & cheese 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammymvpknight Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 I loved Littlefinger...there was no better player of the game (well...we all know how the show went). You'd think that your Littlefinger could find a way to undermine other organizations and see them topple...maybe there is a way he could re-direct his evil...?

Well now that sounds political...so I laughed in agreement. That was a creepy read about a guy that seems slimy. Office Space interview guys to Easterby: "What would you say...you do here?" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My belief is that our owner truly has the best interests for the city + the franchise but he's like his father - very vulnerable, doesn't really understand what hes doing at the end of the day and would prefer to just watch things run smoothly. We're the same franchise that drafted David Carr #1 cause he was a good family man that was married and believed in God. We're not firing a pastor lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There where a lot of people in this town who similarly doubted Clark Hunt would fire Pioli during the darkest part of his regime. The hardest and most important step has been taken, and that is having a light shone on Easterby’s machinations. That happened to Pioli as well and I think that was really the beginning of his downfall. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
