We can say BA made a big favour to him

My wife would.It's his interpretation of the facts that make this an overreaction.
I get fans are frustrated by this season, but you don't kill a spider by lighting your house on fire.
Exactly. BA is old school...he's not awarding participation trophies...and he's certainly not going to console refs, players, coaches, etc when he thinks, right or wrong, they are making glaring mistakes.I know several highs school bball coaches that have been to practices and Mike Kzysewski(sp. butchered) is as foul mouthed in practice as any coach around. A quote one coach told me is , "he makes Bobby Knight look like a saint." And he ******* to the refs to no end. So I don't buy those arguments at all. The Oregon coach that just got fired banned the use of foul language and being hard on players. Look how that worked out for him.
BA coaches and leads the way he sees best and has been very successful at it. Just because some don't agree with it doesn't make them right. It's the NFL, if players are too thinned skin to take any criticism, they are in the wrong business.

Mitch, professional sports rosters are the equivalent of McDonald's All Americans...and they are hand picked, via draft and free agency. They also have, for the most part, the highest of egos, especially when they are younger...mostly due to how they were treated at an early age. Sometimes egos need to be taken down a peg. One thing you should notice is BA really only calls out the youngsters in public...I can't recall when he's called out a vet in public, but even guys like Fitz and Palmer have gone on record with how even they get called out and ripped in front of the team when they screw up. All that said, I don't think BA says anything publically these guys can't handle.Coack K is coaching hand-picked McDonald All-Americans every year. That said, I have never heard him disparage a player publicly. In practice is where it belongs and where it should stay. This is not a fitting analogy.
I am sick of the "this is the NFL" argument, like all modes of human decency are thrown out the window. At the end of the day, it is about respect. Respect for people and respect for the game.
He's been an utter failure trying to cover as a corner, which is what BA was asked about. Great ST player, atrocious CB. He wasn't lying or sugar coating it.

So it's okay to beat up mentally on kids in practice but just don't say anything bad about them in public?
Have you watched Hard Knocks? Coaches are pretty much cut from the same cloth. Ask about any player and they'll take the coach who is straight with them rather sugar coating things. That's why the players, from everything we've heard, love BA. What's his saying, coach 'em hard, hug 'em later? They know he's got their best interests. Just because you don't like that he rightfully says Bethel is a failed progress at CB doesn't mean he treats him with less respect and talk to him in the locker room.
We fans get about 5-10% of what goes on in team and it's locker room.
As for this is the NFL argument, well whether you like it or not, that's how it is.

Mitch, are you a millennial?
I know nothing about you personally, but based on your statements in your posts I am going to believe this is true of your life:
Unlike other generations, the Millennials are overly connected to their parents. As they move through their twenties, they still speak to their parents frequently and turn to their parents for personal and career advice. Some are still even living at home, not uncomfortable with the arrangement. Organizations must remember the parent involvement factor when dealing with this group. These parents are still micro-managing their children’s careers and personal lives.

Not sure if you are directing this at me?? I am not denying anything Mitch said. Yes, BA has indeed said those things or acted in the manner Mitch illustrates for us. My issue is...So what?? Is there a perfect Head Coach out there? If so, who might that be and what exactly makes him perfect?
My issue is that Mitch seems to be making efforts to twist facts into a story that fits his own perceptions and views of BA. That he's "toxic..." How so? By what measure(s)?? Because as far as I can tell, I have yet to hear of a player (past or present) speak negatively of BA. As far as I can tell, up until this season, he was doing things no other Cardinal Head Coach had ever done. So, based upon one sub-par season, BA is now "toxic??" Seriously??
