Just now, Waka Flocka Flacco said:

Why do there need to be co-directors? Why is there not one single function in the entire organization for which ultimate responsibility is on an identifiable person? This is why nobody ever gets fired and the team always sucks. Rodgers will probably remain a disaster but at least you know what he’s in charge of.

Plausible deniability baby
