oic, i didn't think it would be easy to replace Gross. I stopped listening to the pods after he left.
is firing a guy who wasn't suitable really news tho? is there anything more to it other than he didnt fit in?

It's important because, like Jordan said, people were giving Jeff Sherwood shit for what they saw as an unfair firing of McCray when nobody actually knew the full story.

not really..but when one party is talking about his firing and subsequent consequences and another party is being hush about the situation...people start to wonder

Can i have the job, i will suck less.

Agreed, I never liked Brad much anyway. But others seemed to like him, so I figured it was just me. I guess not.

Definitely, especially when he's surrounded by guys like Sherwood who have been hardcore fans of MMA since the sport's infancy, or guys like Breen who can tell you the 2003 Shooto 114 lb rookie champion's cat's name.
