		<description>why are you still hyping on mike woodson having a job?woodson has transformed the hawks into an nba contender for the championship and you&#039;re writing an article about him having ajob?shows you the racism that goes on .if anyone should not have a job is bobby cox. he is no longer commited to winning and you never hype on him being fired. this is totally racial. who&#039;s going to take the hawks to the next level? no one except woodson. leave woodson alone. he is a bonafide top notch coach in a racial environment.last time i looked the hawks were on top in their division and is going to remain there because of woodson</description>

		<description>Jeff Schultz is an idiot ! A redneck and a racist !
You have not accomplished anything in your life so you choose a profession where you can poison the world with negative comments. Get a life! Try selling used cars. Better yet , try washing used cars.</description>

		<description>The Hawks were so bad for so long, just enjoy the fact that they are now competitive. No one needs to go anywhere. See what happened when Mookie, Lenny Wilkins and those guys had to go. Sports purgatory.</description>

		<description>I am a die hard Hawk, Brave and Falcon fan. I think that the Hawks ought to have one goal in mind. Championship. Not Finalist or Div. winner etc. They are deeper this year than I have seen in a long time.  I had hoped that Collier, Siler or somebody could solidify that Center position but I am very happy that Horford is meeting the challenge. If we have the confidence that we wont accept second or mindset that Boston, Cle and Orland o are beatable teams, then the championship is ours for the taking. Go take it HAWKS</description>

		<description>Well, well, well hello to &quot;Hawk Nation&quot; and I hope everyone had a good off season (even you Jeff although I was very surprised to see you were still with the paper...interesting). I wonder if there was another writer who wrote for the AJC who constantly criticized your writing and asked repeatedly to have you replaced and implied you have not done a good job even though things improved every year while you were there even to the point that you were among the the top 25% of the writers in the country. When not too long ago you were ranked at the absolute bottom, how you would like it? 

 

I wonder if that writer would be “fair and balanced” (no pun intended) if every single frickin time they wrote about you, no matter what, the writer was saying how bad a job you are doing...hhhmmmm!!! Again, I wonder if you would think that writer had an agenda or it was personal. You have been an absolute jerk Jeff (seriously) when it comes to your balanced reporting on Woody. Not the Hawks or the current GM, just Wood...hhmmmm!!! With all of the current talent out there with Newspapers closing, cutting back and so forth, I am certain the AJC could find a much better writer than you and even you would have to agree to that, right? Take Tony K and Mike Wilbon to name a couple from our paper here locally and I know Tony has resigned from the Post. By the way, there talent would CRUSH yours. Why don&#039;t I ever see you on any of the national shows for geust spots and expertise occasionally (like they do on the Sports Reporters or Around the Horn or the Colin Cowher show?), Just wondering?

 

Jeff, you should be removed, Fired!!! If I or you had a child in a physics or calculus class, who got off to a very, very slow start, and over the school year, studied hard, asked for help, kept working, met with the teacher, got some tutoring, stayed positive, formed a study group and over the year their grades got better and better and by the end of the school year was one of the top 8 students in a 32 student class, I and you would praise and compliment and really appreciate what they has accomplished!!!  This is exactly what coach Woodson has done over a 6 year period with the Hawks. That is a hard job and he has done very well, given the degree of difficulty!!! Again, I live in a town, that has a football team, the Skins, whose coach and team has been terrible and we are not as hard on him as you are on Woodson. He deserves it, Woody does not.  

 

Finally, that is why I agree with Russ, you are unfair, and if anyone should be replaced it’s you!!! In fact, I wish AJC ran a Poll; here are a couple of questions: should Jeff Schultz be fired?  If AJC could get a top writer or whatever your position is, should he be replaced?  Who thinks Jeff is fair and balanced in his coverage of coach Woodson. I am done with asking you to be fair, I have moved to wanting you fired!!! I wonder if the Mayor, Shirley Franklin, Mr. Brave, Hank Aaron, Mr. Hawk, Dominique, and the honorable Andrew Young feel the same as allot of us that you should be fired or at a minimum extremely unfair in your writing about coach. I am the “official band leader” for you being removed completely or to another part of the paper at a minimum. Again, I would feel a little different if you criticized other parts of the organization equally, then I could conclude it was not personal.  

 

Kudos to Russ, Derek, Mitch!!! Remember the Big 3 (Boston, Cleveland and Orlando) are really, really good. The Hawks could win 50 plus games this season and be better than last year and still lose in the 2nd round and the season still be a whopping success and coach should get a ticker tape parade, c’mon who are we kidding, it was not long ago we were the Clippers and now we are like a Utah or better!!!</description>

		<description>It is indeed &quot;prove-it time&quot; for the Hawks. When you look at the results so far in the poll, Jeff, it certainly doesn&#039;t seem that the fans have much faith in Coach Woodson - or Joe Johnson.

I would be shocked to see the Hawks offer Woodson a renewal prior ot the end of the season. I think it would take a really strong start, and I&#039;m just not sure that&#039;s possible.</description>
