Firing him, if that is his choice, without taking time to talk to an employee would be rash, and ignorant, neither of which is George's style of management or his character as a person. George isn't sitting on a message board whining like a baby, he's meeting and talking to actual employees, people he has an actual relationship with and who he undoubtedly likes as people.
Playing devil's advocate, and if you want to cherry pick, it would be crazy to fire a coach that has a winning record and taken the team to the play-offs twice - something that it has been a good few years since it was done before. And before you rashly jump in, my personal opinion would be to change the coaching staff and management - but I would hope that the owner of the team I follow wouldn't be a dick about it and would show due respect to the people he has employed.
