Him being at the game does what exactly?
I didn't watch the chargers game but him doing an nfl game and someone mentioning Cal and that he is the GM is probably worth more in him marketing than some perfunctory appearance at a game.
Plus I did see Rivera on ca.pus before the game so maybe he left for LA the next morning?
Him being on the radio doing commentary for a Chargers - Commanders game does exactly squat for our marketing. That is a big fat excuse. How do you like the publicity on the DC sports radio I linked above? It makes us a joke. They are actually asking on our behalf how he has time to do this gig when he should be working for us. And the more disturbing implication is that they feel like he wasn't fully committed to them when he was there.
He literally just yelled at fans who question Cal's commitment to get on board or get out and then he demonstrates his commitment by going and doing a side hustle. Unless they are paying him $15M to do that job, it is bullshyte.
Every minute of work time should be spent doing something to turn this program around. Cal needs someone dedicated 100% to doing that and not making us look like idiots being part timed by our "GM". This GM needs to be a serious role done by someone who is full time. I'm not saying he isn't doing that, but the look is really bad.
