If I get pulled, then I better get put on another game with better or equal perks immediately or I am done with them.
Lose money, lose the chance to call a game, and the coach gets to come back with no recourse = Me done completely
If anyone should be done, it is him. And, if he does anything in the next game, then he just gets EJ again. No big deal.
