Have you ever listened to one of Marvin's press conferences? People ask him questions and he just comes off like he is untouchable, he doesnt owe anything or an explanation to anyone about anything.
I get tired of his ass.
Nailed it. This sums my feelings pretty well. It's not just the performance on the field but his personality. In fact, I may want him gone more for this reason than any other. He just comes across as so smug. He strikes me as incredibly condescending as almost put off by the fact that he has to address people he feels aren't worth his time.
I mean, dude, you're making 2mil plus a year. You're in the top 1% of the top 1%. Dealing with the press and fans kind of comes with the territory. And like you said, you don't always have to be a likeable character to be successful as a coach, but you better at least freaking win.
It's not like he's the coach of a team whose city paid a half billion dollars for the stadium his franchise enjoys. Oh, wait he is. And when asked what is response to those who are concerned with our lack of success in the playoffs, we get answers like "A lot of teams would just be happy to make the playoffs". That's it. No further clarification, no effort to expand on the topic, or to appease his fans.
He just seems like a smug prick.
