Bulls Fire Skiles

[JohnBriggs12]

Merry Christmas Scott, you're fired!

Now that's a cold blooded move by management.

That just made my Christmas right there. This came a couple of years too late if you ask me.

Santa Claus delivered the pink slip to the wrong guy. The slip must have accidently been sent to Chicago instead of New York. How long will the Knicks tolerate the hapless Isiah Thomas?

This is the same guy that drove the Continental Basketball Association to the ground and also the Indiana Pacers at one time. The guy's resume is the worst of all-time and yet he continues to get hired by teams.
