Official The OC Candidates Thread 2.0

starting to think Candle and his agent just use us as their personal negotiating tool to get more money where he's at...

 

[RVACane]

That isn't official. Just reports of them talking.

Thanks man. People need to type things in context sometimes

 

[SWFLHurricane]

lol.. I knew I'd hear from you... very true, it's a HOT mess over there.. setup to fail in every direction.

Was supposed to stop by Butch's last weekend, but was in Sarasota tending to business. Probably will stop by Saturday.

If it was going to be Candle, it surely would’ve happened by now, right?

idk beyond the jokes, im just trying to figure out what really is going on. borderline insane to have our staff changes being handled this way

ill forget that he didnt JUST SIGN an extension for a pay raise lol. were the dumbest school lol

Mario is in a Mexican/Cuban standoff just chugging cafecito staring at Candle

 

[hoops156]

And meeting. And drafting.

so why couldnt be this be done before he signed an extension and while we were waiting to fire Gattis formally. seems like this could be handled earlier and just formally announce without having the dude sign an extension w his own team

 

[T$$$]

That is correct.

So ... you gotta think at some point Mario says "Hey Mr. Agent guy ... as one of your clients, could you tell your OTHER client to hurry up?"

What makes this all the more incredible is Mario is spending 18-20 hours a day working and analyzing and still can't get through it. It's not like the guy is on a 40-50 hour work week. Factoring in time for eating, making a decision on what to eat, using the bathroom, making a decision whether he needs to go to the bathroom, deciding which UM shirt to put on, that is probably about 120 hours a week he has spent not making a decision.

 

[PSU Cane]

you do realize he's the oc at TCU now, right?

You do realize it was a joke, right?

 

[Alex Del Piero]

plenty of time to do photo ops with a top gun actor though

Who cares? His buyout went from 750K to 900K. Who cares about the extension? He had a deadline from the ****head AD at Toledo.

If a buyout is not an impediment, I don't see how an extra $150K and slightly newer copier paper makes the contract any more imposing.

What a ridiculous, amateur F-ing mess...

so back to the main question, why couldnt this be done in lock step with the formal firing? plenty of time to do so. we just seem to be pretty inefficient in terms of getting staff hired and fired, but well see if candle really is the guy. i dont believe it anymore till its announced with OC rumors esp from a guy who said no last year

also that AD at toledo played it smart even if candle does take the job here. hes getting an extra 150 for doing basically nothing other than sending a new docu-sign w an extra year

Think it was said him and Mario has the same agent

 

[kccanefan]

What direction is Mario going if I might ask....Backwards??

Most likely.

Maybe he has made his decision but he is waiting on somebody else decision
