Bureaucracy Shall Set You Free

MO SAFE FOR NOW, HE JUST HAS TO REPORT TO A MARKETING GUY. WHAT CAN GO WRONG?

Well, this is strange, as Marc De Grandpre will replace Alexi Lalas at RBNY. Mo Johnston will report to Dr Grandpre, who was "with Red Bull North America for more than seven years as the Director of Field Marketing." At some point, a "Director of Soccer Operations" will be names, in which case Mo Johnston will report to that new gentleman (or lady).

So, in short, Mo will be around for the weekend, working as a guy who knows advertising, and his boss will change at some point. This sounds like a recipe for success. Of course, at least they kept Mo.

It seems like what they're looking to do is similar to the situation at United when Payne went to AEG. They have De Grandpre to look after the business end (Zack) and someone else to help out the coach with trades and drafts (Kasper).
