Some coaches get fired even after the best years they've ever had.
Coach Coughlin, he's one of the best coaches I've ever had. He's one of the best coaches in the NFL, hands down.
When you play professionally, you get accustomed to turnover. Players come and go - they get injured, they get transferred, they get cut from the team. Coaches are hired, and coaches are fired. It's just part of the world you live in.
One of my early money mistakes was getting fired from the first acting job I ever had. I was cast in a play as the lead, and I got fired three nights after the open.
When you get in coaching, you realize there are only two kinds of coaches - those that are fired and those who are going to get fired.
When I started I knew it was a matter of when, not if, I would get fired. That's because that was just the past history of the previous coaches that had been there.
I've learned through experience that you can't ever predict what's going to happen with any show. When I signed on to 'Ugly Betty,' I just prayed that I wouldn't get fired after the pilot, and four years later, I was still doing it.
After I was fired from Disney, I did some of the worst movies ever made.

Edwards commented as he signed an extension to his contract. They had changed coaches every three or four years before my getting the head job. It was just going to be a matter of when I got fired. There were a lot of people that felt that.
As to adding variations to my white ball bowling, ever since I started playing IPL, I realised you need variations. You can't survive on line and length. You need coaches around you who can guide you to get there. I have been lucky that I have had seniors and coaches who have helped me get there.
We should because when coaches get fired, the players have a lot to do with it.
I have had hundreds of people work for me over the years, and I don't think I ever fired anybody.
We coaches have to learn how to deal with that: How do I get to each one best - with a talk, with video analysis? And what sort of tone? We need our own coaches for that. The sports psychologist coaches me too.
It may sound corny to some guys but I still believe after all these years that the game isn't over until the last shot Is fired.
There are only two kinds of coaches - those who have been fired, and those who will be fired.
In this business, if you lose, you're gonna get fired. Now, if you win, you still may get fired. That's the hard part. You see guys having success and getting fired. That's really tough to watch.
