You and some others keep saying that reprimanding a player is beyond the scope of his duties. You’re asserting facts that are not in evidence.  He is the football czar. Other than the owner, he is at the top of the chain of command. He is within his authority to do what he did. You may not like that fact or you may think that it was counterproductive. But he was not wrong. So would you need to understand that occasionally in life it’s not both people were wrong it’s one person was wrong. And Ramsey was that person.

I don't care how high up in the organization you are, reprimanding a player is for the head coach to do. For someone above the HC to do the reprimanding makes the HC look weak.  Reprimanding him immediately after a loss in which he had an emotional meltdown is pure malpractice.  This is people management 101.   

This is why I am saying we don't need this kind of EVP.  If you like TC, make him the HC or make him the GM.  Setting up a 3rd position above those 2 is a mistake.
