How much is a championship worth?

Related Topics: Dayton Moore, Dayton

Dayton Moore’s departure is not surprising given the team’s lack of performance over the past half-decade. And yet, it feels a little strange to see someone bring home a championship and then be fired rather unceremoniously. His tendency toward loyalty, or at least the media’s perception of him being loyal to a fault, is not the norm in the cutthroat world of professional sports. I am of two minds on how to feel about his departure, and that probably makes me a hypocrite as I would have said he needed to go if you asked me two weeks ago.
