Baylor Gives the Old Heave-Ho to Manager Shiraishi Sunday, May 11th , 2059 Weeks of speculation were officially ended today when it was announced that Shosuke Shiraishi has been dismissed as the manager of the Baylor Bears. "I can't really say I'm surprised. I saw this coming for a while, but I guess there was nothing much I could really do to prevent it," Shosuke Shiraishi told BNN. "It's not easy to manage when every decision you make is closely scrutinized and criticized, but that's what I dealt with." A team official said the firing was the end result of "major and irreconcilable differences of opinion" between Shiraishi and the front office. When pressed for more information, Baylor general manager Joe Unknown skirted the issue. "We're not going to get into that right now. It's not really important why he was fired -- we're just going in a different direction," he said. BNN originally reported Shiraishi's tenure with the club was in jeopardy three weeks ago, which team officials at the time dismissed as "just a rumor." |
