5 years
It's often said that coaches in professional sports have a shelf-life with any one team. That after 4 or 5 years (or 2 yrs for Keenan!), the message gets shadowed by the coaches personality and his relationships with the players.
Watching CBC last night and seeing Neil Macdonald reporting about minivan bumper heights made me realize that journalists have the same problem. Macdonald spent 5 years in the Middle East as CBC Television's top correspondent. He left his position there in controversy as questions about bias and polictical activism were brought forth. After 5 years, his message could not be separated from his relationships and personal views.
PS:
And how long did brother Norm last at SNL?? 5 years. I still find it funny that they are brothers.
