Sometimes I'll hang around for a long time, sometimes I leave after the first chip, sometimes I "wait" for the job I want to actually open up rather than commish-moding my way into it. I usually target a destitute team, or one that has never had a championship.
The Omaha job is a real disaster. One step down in market size, multiple steps down in fan loyalty, and a current fan interest in the low 40's. And a farm system largely devoid of ranked talent save for a couple guys in the most recent two drafts.
Snepp III has officially been hired, and Snepp Jr. is retiring after 50 years and 4 teams (snepp sr had an incredible 77 years in the game, that's dedication) . His last official act was to trade a low minor leaguer to Omaha for an even lower minor leaguer. Gotta have that knuckleballer.
