Congratulations to France on their second World Cup title.
The Cardinals not having fired a manager since Joe Torre in ‘95 is impressive, but the University of Iowa hasn’t fired a head football coach since 1978.
- So the Cardinals fired manager Mike Matheny. Michael Baumann writes that for all the problems that Matheny had as an in-game tactician, in the end Matheny was fired for being a bad manager of people.
- If you have a subscription to The Athletic, this Bernie Miklasz piece on Matheny’s shortcomings is pretty devastating.
