If it is obvious to me....and you, why is it not obvious to
McHale....that is the question I would like answered.

Ib dat's de nile, dis mu'd be Egypt <rimshot>

There are good GMs and bad GMs. The bad ones usually
don't last too long, even if they're related to the owner -- unless
they hold the negatives to a set of *very* incriminating photos,
or such like. <grin> Maybe the Joe Smith affair was really just
small potatoes. But Occam's Razor tells me that it's Glen
Taylor who is in denial.

<cue F. Scott Fitz> The rich are different from you and me.
<cue Papa Hemingway> Yes, they have more money.
<cue Levi> And they're more comfortable in their denial.


Personally, I invoke the 5th and request a lawyer.

Good observation. It has always appeared to me that Glen
Taylor has some very strong, and perhaps misguided,
allegiances to McHale for some reason that he is just
unwilling to let go of. Even if it means riding the team into
the ground along with those allegiances.

Perhaps this "rebuilding phase" needs to start from the top down,
beginning with new ownership. As much as Taylor seems like a
"good guy", it could be to a fault, and to the detriment to the team.

25 years. By then, Taylor will have figured out what everyone else in
Minnesota knows.
