Texans’ firing of Amy Palcic sends NFL shockwaves: ‘Stunning’
Amy has a twitter page and we just had an election. An emotional and still hotly debated election.
I think you can see where this is going.
She shared tweets that have a political lean.

The guy who fired her has a twitter account which has numerous religious retweets and it doesn't take very long to see the political tones of the re-tweeted posters are.
News of Amy getting fired for 'CULTURAL' reasons came three days after she shared a tweet about an embarrassing campaign rally at a parking lot of a landscaping business instead of a high class hotel.

Texans’ firing of Amy Palcic sends NFL shockwaves: ‘Stunning’
NFL media trashing the Texans for firing PR chief Amy Palcic... only woman to hold top public relations responsibilities for a team. The staff she led won the 2017 Rozelle Award for the NFL’s best PR staff as voted by the Pro Football Writers of America.
NFL media reacted to the news of Palcic’s firing on Twitter:
“This is a stunning move. Stunning. @amypalcic is one of the best media-relations people I’ve met in my 36 years covering the NFL. Top 5,” wrote NBC Sports’ Peter King.
“The Texans have turned into one of the worst organizations in football since Bob McNair died. @amypalcic was the best. She certainly was too good for what the Texans deserve,” wrote Pro Football Talk’s Charean Williams.
“Amy is widely respected around the league. This is a shocker,” wrote Newsday’s Bob Glauber, the president of the PFWA.
“A terrible decision by Houston. Amy is elite at her job. She was a true asset to that organization and a total pro,” wrote Yahoo Sports’ Pete Thamel.
“Shocked. Palcic is the consummate professional & always a pleasure to deal with...
Texans ripped for firing PR head Amy Palcic... "If Amy Palcic isn’t a 'cultural fit,' then the Texans’ culture is absolutely rancid," tweeted ESPN's Jeff Darlington.
... "The BS 'cultural fit' the @HoustonTexans are talking about is that Amy cares more for the players than the organization does. Anyone in the NFL knows she’s one of the best at her job, hence the Texans couldn’t cite her performance, but bad organizations always find a way to lose."
Watt also spoke highly of Palcic, who was key when Watt raised more than $37 million to help the city after Hurricane Harvey.
"I think you can tell from the universal response from prominent people in the business what type of person Amy is and how well-respected and well-liked she is, both inside of our building and outside the building," Watt said during a Zoom call with the media Wednesday. "Extremely professional. Just really good at her job. Cared a lot. Just wants what’s best for the team and what’s best for the organization. Always trying to do what’s best and was a massive helping hand with me during the hurricane and during my entire time here. I think it's a very difficult loss. She’s an incredible person and I think she’s going have another job in an absolute heartbeat."
I could go on and on with accolades for Palcic and how universally stunned people are about her abrupt firing. Heck, even I had heard of her and knew how well respected she was around the league as a PR exec which says a F'ng lot since I don't know any other NFL PR execs and I really didn't like that trigger word used to fire her 'CULTURAL' reasons so I did a lil digging and found out somethings and I'll let you decide what those 'CULTURAL' reasons could be.Mary Kay Cabot@MaryKayCabot
This is a shocker. Amy, formerly with the #Browns , is amazing

Disgraceful. Amy is amazing. What are the Texans doing?

I feel like we didn’t focus enough on the fact that someone in the Trump campaign meant to schedule the “four seasons hotel” but definitely accidentally scheduled this “four seasons landscaping” store and they had to follow through with it.
Veep was not this good.
