1/2 of my offseason wish comes true!!!! Kliff is next.

I heard there's a concession stand just begging for his "management."

 

[PJ1]

Social director?

Maybe what Will Stockdale was named in No Time For Sergeants:

P.L.O.-Permanent Latrine Orderly

I’m not going to bury Keim. Under Arians, the Cards had arguably the most talented roster in the league. Keim deserves credit for that. But that last few years have been bad, even though they were a playoff team last year, and it’s time to move on from him.

Who’s Schultz?

Keim's problem is how he sees the team is vastly disconnected from reality. He always thinks the roster is close to challenging. You have to think that during the BA years Bruce was steering him concerning roster decisions.

When he's had weaker HC's and gone his own way he's been gash.

The majority of the talent on those teams was acquired by his predecessor btw. And when Bluto did stumble (literally and figuratively) on to talented players they almost always left for greener pastures. Arians was the straw that stirred that drink on those teams.

There’s no defending Keim. His run as Cards GM was nothing short of atrocious.

I understand they need a new manager in the merchandise store.

 

[Minski]

Social director?

Head Barman and after hours team uber driver

 

[Dback Jon]

Best wishes to him and his struggles, but it was the right move

FFS MB just can’t let his buddy go permanently…. lol.

Sorry, but this leaves open the possibility of him still putting his fingerprints on this roster. He needs to GO.

 

[Goldfield]

It was time for sure

 

[Brak]

My 2012 signs, just before Whisenpunt® was dispatched. I still have my bag someplace.

So now KEIM has “Decided to step away”. He has to have pictures of MB doing something.

Negotiated buyout with Keim

 

[Jasper]

BA knew how to use the players Keim signed. Kliff and VJ didn’t. Keim practically missed on every 1st round draft pick since he became GM with the exception of DJ.

 

[PDXChris]

Negotiated buyout with Keim

Definitely sounds that way.

Negotiated buyout with Keim

This. "Stepping away" means resigning, but he wasn't just going to leave without getting paid.

nah... thats a quit. had stevie been fired Mike was on the hook for his contract... steve "deciding to step away" releases Mike from the obligation...as mao stated, likely a buyout agreement. very likely a move for steve...give up this contract but still have "A" job when he gets his **** together..."A" job is better than NO job... nfl GM's dont get many second chances
