This is a rare combination: both a leadership post and a swell Christmas story.
It is also very short, and I’m afraid to even quote from it as I might spoil it for you. I will say that it is a story from fairly recent history that involves two Marine Corps generals, and reflects honorably on both of them.

This is an actual ESPN headline:
Jesus, Joseph, and Mary. May the dead rest peacefully, and may the survivors recover and find peace as well.
Recent firings that I missed over the past few days:
Brian Polian out in Nevada, though this is being spun as “by mutual agreement”. The team was 23-27 over his four years, and 5-7 this year.
Ron Caragher out at San Jose State. 19-30 in four seasons, 4-8 this year.
