Interesting convo on First Take today. Masai used Joe Dumars as an example as it pertains to the lack of black executives in the NBA and all of sports. Dumars as the Pistons President of Basketball Operations led the Pistons to 6 straight ECF appearance and obviously won it all in 04. He never got another executive job after getting fired by the Pistons.
I have a much better example though: CITO GASTON. Back to back WS champion in 92 and 93. When the Jays let him go in 95, Cito never got another managerial job till later on in his career when the - guess who - Blue Jays brought him back in 09 or maybe 2010. That's crazy. Cito Gaston is a 2x WS champion.
