Over the last three or so seasons I've addressed in details my issues I have with Torts. I'm not really on the fire Torts bandwagon, but I'm not on the Keep Torts bandwagon either.
The FO will do what the FO does, regardless of any opinions around here. He's probably earned some time to right the ship, for sure, with the FO. Personally I would have moved on, if I were Jarmo, a while ago. I probably wouldn't have given him a new contract.
We're paying the price for the decisions the FO made from the deadline until the start of the season (it's actually longer than that, but those are the most obvious). The question is how long it will take to come out the other side. Might be next game, might be seasons.
