Sixers Ownership Already Met To Decide Bryan Colangelo's Future And A Decision Could/Should Be Made Sometime Today

(That collar and Nosferatu wrist are somehow, someway not photoshopped)

ESPN – The Philadelphia 76ers’ ownership group, including CEO Scott O’Neill, met for several hours in New York on Tuesday evening to discuss whether the findings of a probe into president of basketball operations Bryan Colangelo necessitate his firing, league sources told ESPN. A decision could be reached as soon as Wednesday, league sources said. The Sixers retained the law firm of Paul/Weiss to investigate several secret Twitter accounts that have been tied to Colangelo and his wife, Barbara. Investigators interviewed Colangelo, 53, and his wife separately for several hours Sunday and Monday, league sources said. Colangelo has professed no knowledge of his wife’s alleged year-plus of unleashing privileged information and attacks on Sixers players, coaches and former and rival executives, sources said. The Sixers ownership is struggling to separate Colangelo from his wife, if she indeed posted those remarks.

Um…so…what’s up, Sixers ownership? There’s zero reason it should be taking this long to make a decision regarding Bryan Colangelo’s future with the franchise. He’s embarrassed the organization to the point of no repair. Either he (or his wife/someone close to him) has trashed players, coaches, and management. Even if he isn’t directly responsible for the burners, he’s obviously flapping his lips about inside information. Also, in the most important offseason in recent Sixers history, maybe ever, the likes of LeBron James is cracking jokes at the disgraced GM’s expense:

Keeping Colangelo around is purely unacceptable. Does Will Smith need to exercise his minimal shares in the team and go Big Willie Style on someone’s ass? Something has to happen and it has to happen yesterday.

But still, get ready to grab your torches and pitchforks and storm the gates of Camden:

Even if inserting a blood thirsty mob within those city limits would only improve the ambience of Camden, this would be bad. Like, real bad. When the Bulls were keeping Jerry Krause and his blatant incompetence around, Charles Barkley famously said “Jerry Krause must have pictures of his boss’s wife having sex with a monkey”. There’s no reason other than Adam Silver and/or the Sixers ownership playing aristocratic favorites for Colangelo to stick around for one more second.

This is now how franchises are run, move on, find a new slant. Or play this delightful Bryan Colangelo-based computer game “Normal Collars” that of course now exists.
