[quote name='JoelyPoley']Just to play devils advocate, say we had coach firings turned on. At the end of the season wouldn't the fired coaches be able to compete for a job with other teams that fired their coach?
Sort of like they do in NCAA right now. In the offseason you can accept a job offer from another team that isn't renewing their head coach. The commish also has the power to force a team to stick with a specific coach.
I don't care what we do either way but I think it has potential to be a neat aspect of the league. Maybe not for this league, but generally speaking.[/QUOTE]
I actually like this idea. I would just be apprehensive about how the game handles it. I'm also not sure how receptive people would be to switching teams if they were fired. But I do think it would be cool if 2 people got fired and they switched teams for the next season. Although, that would raise the issue of a coach's style not fitting with his new team. Just seems like a lot of potential issues there.
Another question would be if the game would allow you to be "re-hired" by the same team. Say, for instance, if only one coach was fired...it would suck if he was forced to retire just so he could get his team back. Ultimately, like I said, I wouldn't want people losing their progress unless it's by choice. Just seems like that would discourage people from wanting to continue.
