George Karl must go!
The 2007 Denver Nuggets are now composed of many excellent players that apparently just can’t get it together. With a roster full of NBA veterans, the only missing ingredient is team leadership and that’s what Coach Karl cannot provide. I say that George Karl can’t do the job because he is not a leader, not a man of conviction and not the guy that these players will follow into battle - what he is, is a democrat. Now before anyone says that the Coach’s politics are irrelevant, I would remind them that, George Karl himself injected his own liberal leanings on the broadcast of Wednesday, November 8th. That morning, I purposefully tuned into Sports Radio in order to avoid listening to any partisan gloating, after the 2006 Mid-term elections. In an unsolicited remark, the first words out of Karl’s mouth were, “Thank g-d that the democrats finally won”.
Not only should the Coach have kept his politics to himself but, by revealing who he is ‘politically’, he gave us all we need to know about why the Nuggets are now mediocre at best.
Democrats may be capable of leading in peaceful times (i.e. Clinton), but in times of strife, when true leadership is required, a Liberal is a liability. A wishy-washy, politically correct, ‘let’s all just get along’ mentality is a formula for failure. Real men, like the Nugget players, do not respond well to a leader like Karl, they sense his internal weakness and his lack of personal conviction and fortitude, which is exemplified by his self-proclaimed Liberalism.
The Nuggets will never be winners while their coach is a loser – send George Karl back to Seattle, his latte is getting cold.
