Official 2012 Fire Shawn Slocim! Thread

[Joemailman]

How can a special teams unit that has Jarrett Bush not be #1 in the NFL?

The answer: Shawn F*#&in' Slocum.

Come on MM. Fire his ass today!

Please keep in mind that only on Wednesday can you call for the firing of Shawn Slocum.

[denverYooper]

I'm on board.

[Smeefers]

Fuck that guy.

[channtheman]

Oh thank God. I was hoping a topic like this would come up. The misspelling of the name in the thread title is a nice touch as well.

[Guiness]

Please keep in mind that only on Wednesday can you call for the firing of Shawn Slocum.

You forgot that you can also call for his firing on Tuesday and Thursday if you're not sure what day it is, Fridays if you really feel like it, and week-ends are alright too.

[Upnorth]

BUt Monday, thats right out. So if any of you say Fire Slucum on Monday, Guiness will sick his dog on you.

Mondays after an abysmal ST performance are fertile fields in which to sow your discontent as well.

2012 was clearly the exception that proves the rule. Fire Slocum!

I'm thinking the next step the P'Rats can take
is to create a new definition for the word "Slocum", a la "Santorum". I am sure you sick bastards can come up with a definition so disgusting ("...a frothy mix of....") and get it to show up whenever someone Googles "Slocum" that Big Mike will have to fire his ass for not being "Packer People".
Hmmmm.....so what could the definition of "Slocum" be?

I apologize for my faux pas in another thread for requesting Smocul's ouster on a Tuesday. I erred, grotesquely so, and will endeavor to not allow a such an egregious breach of etiquette to happen again.

I am sorry.

That being said:

Aaaaaw fuck, it's Thursday........

[woodbuck27]

Mondays after an abysmal ST performance are fertile fields in which to sow your discontent as well.

To avoid an argument I propose that every day is 'FIRE' Packers ST's Coach Shawn Slocum Day.

but wait..............

The rules were established by higher powers on this one. Fire Slocum day is Wednesday. To avoid an argument I propose everyone fall in line and obey the rules. Today is now Thursday. So I better not hear any further proposals regarding the termination of Mr. Slocum for 6 more days.

Yes, that was meant to sound serious. I'm dead serious on this. See this? This is my serious face.

And lo it came to pass as the laws of the land were passed down from on high, that he who shall receive no good credit, but only hard knocks, shall be protected from harsh words on all days save wednesday, as the serious puppet declare wednesday his day of rest.

[sharpe1027]

Slocum should be fired on May 16th. Please begin processing the paperwork immediately to avoid any unnecessary delays. We can't have this happen on the 17th.

Because....?

[Fritz]

It's Friday, so I do not want Slocum fired, but come next Wednesday I will.

[Gunakor]

Because....?


The 17th is a Thursday. It is against the rules to fire Slocum on a Thursday. And nobody likes a rebel.

[Gunakor]

It's Wednesday now, let the party commence!


FIRE SLOCUM!!!!

[Joemailman]

Let the firing begin:

Maybe Thursday could be ask Slocum to resign day?

[Smeefers]

I'd actually like more than one bullet. 10 to 20 would do fine I think. We gotta make sure ya know.

[woodbuck27]

WOW ! This place gets scary on Wednesdays.

OK ....what do any of you have on this guy. Try to be objective !

We do NOT need anyone wrath. Alot of men cannot deal with rejection....of any sort.

A FIRING = Capitol Punishment. It's not a hanging or the guillotine but no less difficult for both sides sometimes. Given our rcent upgrade in terms of ST success how do you FIRE Slocum?

If he deserves it ...let's get that done...but.....

FIRE!

[Gunakor]

Dear Mr. Slocum,

Please resign at your earliest possible opportunity. Before next Wednesday would be preferable, as such a delay would provide ample reason for the forum to line up the firing squad again. Neither party wants that to happen I'm sure.

[Smeefers]

Dear Ted Thompson,

Please get back those pictures Mr. Slocum has of you. Nobody knows why you were in your office, covered in peanut butter, pinching your nipples, and nobody cares. Once you get those pictures back, I'm sure that Mr. Slocum will happily submit his resignation and therefore I won't have to (even jokingly) call for his immediate death next wednesday.

[sharpe1027]

Dear Mr. Crosby,

Having a coach that "challenges" you to "reach out to some of [your] colleagues around the league" rather than figure it out how to coach you himself must be somewhat frustrating. Perhaps you could challenge Mr. Slocum to resign instead. Please do so before the end of day today. We have no options yet for Fridays.

It's only Tuesday, so bad news for firing Slocum and Campen enthusiasts.

http://jerseyal.com/GBP/2012/05/22/packers-coaches-campen-slocum-out-of-the-fire/

Complaints overall seem to be down. Seems like having a returner helped Slocum become a better coach. I'd also mention TJ Lang for Campen, but I am still in charge of defending Colledge.

I think that posting about a post that asks that Slocum be fired, when done on Tuesday, may still be a violation of the rules. Perhaps someone can review the correct subsection and give us a ruling.

Fire him retroactively.

[George Cumby]

[denverYooper]

How much would he owe us?

[Fritz]

Okay it's Thursday now.

I say the Pack should keep Slocum, based on ST improvements last year.

[Smeefers]

I'd like to ask Mr. Slocum to resign please. You've had a mostly horrible run here. You damn near castrated Crosby when you told MM that he could "make it from 50+, no problem." MM then went along to use him at 50+ a record 417 times that season and you made fans start to call for his head. He was as good a kicker then as he was today, you just mangled him and it was through his own conviction that he came out of that fatafull year intact. You sir, are a maggot that feeds on the corpse that was once our special teams and you've stayed long past your welcome. Please, Leave of your own free will. It's still early in the season, I'm sure the Colts will pick you up.

Sincerely,
Smeefers

Thursday is ask him to resign day, right?

[sharpe1027]

Dear Mr. Slocum,

Can you please resign -- effective two years ago? Think of the children!

Warmest regards,
The rest of the world.

[sharpe1027]

Jaysus Fritz. Suddenly ........... your the voice of reason.

You confuse me ........ sometimes.

[Fritz]

I wasn't being reasonable, Woody, I was only confused.

I thought Wednesday was the day to demand Slocum's resignation, and the rest of the week he was safe.

I stand corrected.

Dear Mr. Slocum:

Please resign. It's Thursday.

Sincerely,

Fritz

[Gunakor]

Yep. You're safe this week.

We cannot demand it on Thursday, but we can ask politely for him to leave on his own. That was the compromise between the serious puppet, Zeus, and us rats.

[sharpe1027]

I thought it was: Wednesday we ask TT to fire Slocum. Thursday we ask Slocum to man up and resign himself. I disagree we should be required to be polite about either. Maybe serious puppet or Zeus can give us some clarification.

[Smeefers]

The rest of the week we cannot call for his firing, but we can rage about how horrible he is and call him names and possibly fling boogers in his general direction.

[Patler]

I say promote Slocum to a newly designated position of: "Assistant to the Assistant Head Coach and Chief Coordinator of Coordinators". The dual responsibility of this position will require that a new ST coordinator be hired. Lots of reasons for this:

- Since we are advocating for him to be promoted, it should be allowed any day of the week, or at least any day not designated as a "fire" or "resignation" day. That will allow us to take a strong position advocating something each and every day.

- Slocum and Moss seem to deserve each other.

- The Assistant Head Coach is irrelevant; the Assistant to the Assistant should be even less relevant.

- There are more and more coaches on the team as years go by. There are three coordinators who should themselves be coordinated. A coordinator of coordinators seems natural, sort of like the never ending expansion of titles in the scouting department. Yet, the coordinator of coordinators should be no more influential to the coordinators than the Assistant Head Coach is to the Head Coach

- It gets around the issue of those troublesome MM/peanut butter pictures that Smeefers wrote about.

Wednesday is fire day, thursday is ask for resignation day, so logically friday should be promotion day.
AHhhhhh the internet, making the crazy seem sane.

I say that the Vikings should lure Slocum away with a promotion to be their new head coach! Why not? It is not like they are expecting to win much this year anyway.

We have a zero-tolerance policy.

Take your pick and please leave the premises.

This is hard for me to do, okay guys? I mean, give me a minute to get my breath here.

It's just that, well... Huuummm... Slocum is doing good this year. (HackHack)

He is, (stomach grumbled, slightly green complexion) We've had one of the more impressive special teams in the league. Perhaps it really was the players and not the scheme and (wet hack, drool at corner of mouth)...

And and maybe (hackhack) Oh god, I can't do it.

Fire that motherfucker.

Sorry, sorry. I just couldn't do it. I tried you know. Right? You saw... you saw I tried.

I just still hate him. Fire his ass. I know it's not wednesday and I deserve a beat down or something. I really didn't come into this expecting to call for his head, but, well, that's how things go sometimes. I'm fully willing to accept the consequences of my actions here.
