The Rockets fired their social media manager today

Apparently Les created a Horse Sancturary named after Les's late mother to honor her about 5 years ago. The Evelyn Alexander Home for Animals.

Sucks that this stupid tweet is overshadowing the Rocket's recent success and domination of the Mavs. I'm sorry this guy lost his job. But he had 1 job: Social Media Manager. He made a mistake and stated that he failed pretty bluntly. Anyways he's in a position that is easily replaceable. I can't believe people are equivocating his repercussions to Morey's.

 

/thread

Pretty much sums everything up

 

I say raise:

"Dear MFFL, after the cruel beating the Rockets gave you during the '15 playoffs and neglect of your owner, take heart. Rockets owner Les Alexander has established a sanctuary for cases just like yours."

 

Feel bad for the guy.

DD predicted it and I did not want to believe.

 

lol it all makes sense now

 

Fired or not fired... This should never go big nationwide.... darn social media impact on things

 

Lol I do not want to look at that thing 24/7.

Spoiler

I get sick.....

No homo or offense therefore.

 

My 2 cents are because he used the official Rockets account to do his bidding and not his own one and then commented inappropriately next to the horse and gun.

But I get you, man. This whole situation is getting scary.

 

I love how he bashed the rockets too... "I hope there is another organization that's better than these dip wads" is basically what he just tweeted. Shots fired?

 

We're talking about emoji! We're not even talking about real horses!

 

Curse of the Shanks.

Rockets are not going to win a playoff series for next 10 years.

Repent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Wow, good looking out and throwing the anti jinx on that possible jinx.

 

Now we learned believing in curses are for losers.

'Great teams shatter curses. They do not fear them'

 

Fairly recent article explaining that horses are still put down by shooting them. Vets quoted stating "an act of humanity rather than one of cruelty."

Looks like Chad deserves a Human Society commendation rather than being fired.

 

I'm about convinced that 75-90% of those offended--THE HORROR--by the tweet don't even realize that a Maverick is a horse.

I'm certain that NicktheBrick doesn't.

But thanks to all the dropdick PR nerds who've come on here to explain why, no--really--this all makes sense.

You assholes are the problem, not the solution. In the immortal words of John McClane, quit being part of the ****ing problem. And put that other guy back on the line.

And in the immortal words of chievous minniefield, you're fired/welcome to my ignore list.

 

Yet you reached out to try and help the guy? Soooo you want to re-hire someone that you just fired?

You are one strange dude.

 

Exactly that's what ESPN did for the female reporter who went off on the parking attendant.

 

Chad?
