    Apparently there's a Finnish reporter whos stating that the reasoning for the firing is alcohol abuse. I wont believe it until I read it from one of the more reliable sources but that's the lastest one flying around out there. Im sure there's more to it than just alcohol abuse but that could be the main reasoning behind whatever is going on. He had to have done something wrong will under the influence.

    That would align with all the things stated by the team.
    -Not illegal
    -No criminal case
    -It's something we all do (drink)
    -"had to be done" if it was effecting his work

    However, firing him if he has a problem isn't the proper way to approach this. I'm sure they could have had him go into the substance program and actually help him. But I guess if he doesn't think he has a problem, he wouldn't go voluntarily.

    Unless he did something while under the influence that was offensive. I dont know. Im sure more will come out eventually.

    Ya, it's hard to piece together things when the players were shocked by the move, so anything he did was quite hidden. But players lie to the media for sure.

    There will be more info released for sure though. This stuff just doesn't stay a secret. Jim Montgomery said he won't talk about it now, but there will be a day he talks about it.

    On the latest Spittin Chiclets Biz mentions that he knows the scoop but doesn't feel right spreading it. He also said he thought that Montogmery WOULD NOT have been fired if all of this recent stuff wasn't going on right now.

    I beat them to this line. And dozens of others beat me to it.

    Everyone knows, nobody tells.
