Back in 2012 when he made the Fidel Castro comments (which, I believe, were taken out of context), it took Miami a whole season to launch him, and I think it was somewhat tied to their disappointing finish that year.

But was he the first one to lose a job in the modern era due to private comments?

He STILL has not received the opportunity to manage again, and he was a damn good manager.

Was this a cancellable comment or something?

Correct. What I meant was that he made the comment not during a press conference or during a game.
