I also got both ears off the lechon

what kind of idiot doesn't use hindsight? How do you learn anything if you're unable to look back and judge.
- LeftCoaster


We have different views, your interpretation of Benning’s entire tenure has been a failed process, I think he has made both good and questionable decisions.

I have yet to meet anyone in my entire life that does anything different than that, to continually focus on the portions that you perceive to be failed attempts doesn’t prove he is an idiot. And to label someone like myself as an idiot because I fail to have the same opinions of Benning and his decision making is quite frankly, crap.

Summary is that everyone makes good and bad decisions, including me, you, any GM you can name, Benning...whomever. Your hindsight opinions are biased, because of your reluctance to be objective when it comes to Benning.

But you’re still a good poster as Marwood would say,

I've come to the opinion that my displeasure with Benning was actually Linden, Benning has still offered some real head shaker contracts thou.

Absolutely he has, which is why I believe he is learning, the contracts he offered the 3 UFA’s this year is one head scratching moment, but I certainly don’t know what he was up against, or why he gave long term, but so far I’m being open minded and waiting quite a bit longer to evaluate.

Eriksson contract is out there but did anyone really predict such a drastic downturn? The others like Gagner doesn’t bother me because he identified he had to move forward, and he did.

5:30 comes early, enjoy.

For the drivers sake I hope there is a very large and noticeable sign stating that occupants are being recorded. Pretty sure you are not allowed to film people, and then use that recording for profit, without consent anyway...

Admitting you made a mistake is great and all, but continuing to make the same mistake over and over is why I think he is an idiot, at least in terms of GMing. In real life, I’m sure he is a swell guy.

I've acknowledged many times the good that Benning's done, many times, but that gets passed over because of my continual non stop female doging about him lol, and that's ok, that's on me.

If allowed, Benning will eventually make this a better team, almost in spite of himself though. That's my issue! He's completely failed at what he was trying to do but the outcome has been good first round pick position. They've picked very well in those positions a few times. They've also missed a few times.

I just will never agree that his tenure thus far has been successful, it hasn't, I wish him well but I hope he's gone sooner than later.
