Quick thread on Dan Quinn...

Arthur Blank had no choice to make the call he made today, and it was the correct one. But DQ was a great guy, very accessible and gracious to the media, and I am sorry to see him go. 1/
DQ was the first Falcons coach (to my knowledge) to invite the media in to their building to do film studies. It really helped to educate us, but also it was an effort on his part to build relationships. 2/
He answered a lot of tough questions and never once lost his cool. Not ever. He obviously deeply cared for his players and the team. I will also never forget a pep talk he gave me before the 2018 MLS Cup Final. 3/
Sometimes things just don’t work out, and clearly that happened here. But I really hope Quinn finds success in the future. I’ll be rooting for him. He’s a good guy. I hope the next coach will be as gracious to me as he was. 4/4
