You know, Francesco probably would not have done well.

if he was in the same position as Jim Rutherford on Friday alone up there getting question after question from the media, that is not something he wants to do.

And I understand it because...

There are some people that just don't love public speaking.

It's very uncomfortable for them.

Jim Rutherford isn't one of those guys, so why not send him up there instead of ownership?

Well, that's what they're paying him for, right?

Yeah, and I also wonder, because this was the next thing I was going to ask you about,

When Jim Rutherford was asked, are you embracing or are you bracing for more pain next season?

And he said, no, I'm not.

When I heard that, I was kind of like, I think you're going to have more pain, but maybe that's ownership talking there.

Is it possible that the new GM gets hired and Jim Rutherford is very quickly out the door and resigns?

It's tough timing for them, though, isn't it?

I mean, we all want them to take their time and make sure you get the right hire and go out and do the Zoom calls.

And maybe even if you don't hire someone, maybe you've learned something from them in the interview process.

This isn't something that they've tended to do.

So we all want them to take the time and make sure that they hire the right person.

But at the same time, you're going like, all right, pitter-patter, let's get at her because you've got some massive decisions to make before the draft in June.

We knew that was going to happen.

And I appreciate all of your complaints.
