Your group think on here is the extreme minority. Just today on 92.3 the during Baskin and Phelp they suggested and I quote "they need to find a Steve Ballmer type" to own the team. Most of callers felt them same way. They are making a profit but treat the Indians like it's a normal Business. There's nothing to optimistic about when they let a top 5 player walk for some scrubs in AA that may or may not be good. Linor is a proven superstar in his prime and will be in his prime for 6-7 years and has earned his next contract, pay the damn man. It's not my problem those cheaps fuck have such a small payroll that Lindor would take 25% of it. They need to figure it, MLB or MLBPA needs to figure it with a cap/floor, or sell the team to someone with the purse to field and maintain a Major league team in current climate it's that simple. If you enjoy this cycle of developing Cy Young winners and MVP types so we can lose them in Free Agency to big market teams rather then pay/retain them then your probably the type that like get his balls stomped out by some chick in high heels on and then proudly posts it on Pornhub or something. Also tell me all the glowing thing besides the draft do the Cavs have to look forward to. We on a thread about how the coach is quitting because his players hated practicing twice a day while making millions and our FO sucks with no end in sight and no plan going forward.

Your post doesn't spend much time on the topic. I see a sweeping personal attack towards all the members and some rambling train of thought about the Indians and porn. Please stick to discussing the topic of John Beilein without opening fire on everyone reading.

He deserves some kind of recognition for planting his flag in territory that apparently includes a Baskin-and-Phelps led majority and some chick in high heels stomping on my balls. Even as the owner of said balls, I'm not sure which would be worse.

As for Beilein ... if I were 67 years old and already had more money than I could spend, I wouldn't want to spend any more time being miserable either. No matter how big the price tag would be on that misery. Besides, he likely already has colleges calling him up and asking about his plans for next fall. If he wants to go back to earning seven figures, he'll have the chance.
 
Regarding Beilein and the money left on the table - He's a smart guy who's been smart for a long time. He's made millions year after year, I'm sure he's invested wisely, money is the least of his concerns at this stage. His net worth would stagger some. He's seeking priceless peace of mind. I wish him well.

I also think the NBA season doesn't lineup with when college fire and hire new coaches. Leaving now vs waiting could be the difference between getting to the program he wants or having to settle or wait another year. He can also go recruit and maybe get a couple late commitments or transfers.

He is also leaving the Cavs where Michael Gansey is the assistant GM and he thinks of like a son. At the end of the day, Beilein buys Michael Gansey some good will by not trying to get the money he is owed on the contract. That might be the difference between Gansey keeping his job and not being shown the door with Beilein.
 
Doesnt get much more embarrassing than a coach quitting with 30 games left.. hopefully this is rock bottom and its all up from here..
 
In the win against the Hawks on Wednesday, I watched Beilein as time expired. He didn’t look excited or happy or anything. And one of the Cavs players (I believe Tristan) walked literally right by him on the court and did not even acknowledge him, only to hug or high five the next person he came upon. At the time I didn’t think it was a good sign and, in retrospect, it definitely wasn’t a good sign.

There's way too many grammatical errors for me to take this post seriously. I'm guessing 14 maybe 15 years old . . .
