No, no, I’m not saying they need tell us what they’re really thinking. Of course they’re not going to do that. “Yeah, he wasn’t very good so the fact that someone was willing to give us a pick for him, well we couldn’t jump on that fast enough.”
My point is, they’re NOT going to say anything, they’re not answering anybody’s questions, so the exercise of these interviews is pointless.
"That was a tough decision. Ross was a good player for the organization for a number of years…”
What’s the point of saying that, especially when it’s not in the same zip code of the truth?
We all know it’s coach/GM speak, but when that’s the kind of stuff they’re saying, it’d be better to not even have an interview. Just seems like a waste of everyone’s time.
