re: BI and Willie had an exchange during Game 2 according to Shams

is there a chance when Willie and Griff sit down that Willie could still be fired?

I always thought that the Willie potentially to the Front Office rumor seemed weird and out of nowhere until we found out that they had secretly extended him. It might be easier for Griff to hide Willie's contract in the Front Office budget than sell 2nds he no longer has to cover it on the balance sheet like he did with Stan. So I do think Willie to the Front Office could happen, but it also seems like if you tweak a few things to help Willie get out of his own way, a lot of the complaints might go away. If Griff is able to make the right moves that protect Willie from himself, I think he leaves him in place.
