Like vice president of baseball operations Ken Williams with the White Sox, Paxson is all but untouchable in Reinsdorf’s eyes. To put it in perspective, Williams once vouched for the hiring of good friend Dave Wilder when Williams was still in the GM role, gave Wilder an open checkbook to sign international prospects, only to find out after a federal investigation that Wilder was extorting money from the organization.

While Wilder served time, Williams was promoted to executive, giving him a pay bump and better parking spot, completely escaping a fireable offense by the standards of most organizations.

Paxson’s done nothing to that extreme.

I'm skeptical of that. Does Jerry even remember that he owns a basketball team?

Sox are signing FA's and the UC was half empty the other night. I'm sure he is livid.

Gar was removed from power a few years ago. He had his shot, failed and they sent him to scouting. Firing him doesn’t change a damn thing.

Eh? In what roles. Collins as the GM and Pax as the coach? Who is the president then since Pax is replacing one of the other roles?

Don't you think Pax has been GM and President?

He was then he didn’t want the job so JR promoted them both so Paxson could do less work and hide out. That totally backfired. They still need a new GM and a coach even if pax stays on as president.
