He was an asshole to everybody in baseball, thinking he had more figured out than anyone else, and then failed. On an epic level.

Hard for guys with that rep to get another chance.

I'd be all for a guy who's kind of an asshole, though. Dayton Moore, by all accounts, is a really nice guy who's a devout Christian. Let's go the opposite direction. An asshole atheist might be just what's needed (accountability, facts and data replacing the scout's eye and belief Dayton relies on).
