Imaginary Coach Loses Imaginary Job

Senor Weaselo - October 5, 2020

Or jobs, for that matter. Bill O'Brien is relieved of his duties for the Houston Football Team. Well, it's only about 9 months too late after blowing a 24-0 lead to the Chefs in the divisional round, but better late than never, I guess? Too bad the Te-xans (I think that's
