re: Local Media on the upcoming AD talks

Right. But look at the responses to his tweet. It does not help at all

More information isn't always a good thing.

Imagine a documentary that says nothing vs one that presents strongly on one side with no mention of the other, nuance, etc. Which is more dangerous?

its not fletch's, jake's, or your responsibility to make sure information given to fans is laid out in strictly ways that are beneficial to the organization. You're changing the narrative quickly on your criticism. The fact is, Fletch and Jake are probably not wrong at all (which you initially criticized their sources) and its bringing fans back down to earth that AD is still firmly entrenched in his bags are packed stance than opening up to the Griffin train.

I hear what you’re saying and I’m kidding. I get bent out of shape all the time on here about said game.

But it’s Fletch. I learned long ago not to get bent out of shape about him.

Thanks for sharing all of this.

I doubt that AD hearing about the plan in person would do anything in terms of changing his mind if he already knows what they are selling.

The Pels are selling hope and a vision moving forward but that is all that it is at this point and it would require AD to jump in under blind faith. And why should AD trust that it will be any different? This is a small market that has a history of losing and doing things the wrong way. David Griffin wouldn’t change my mind at all that it would be any different.

I also think AD wants to win now and Griffin May be selling long term vision which is not going to cut it with AD.

But is it big.surprising news that he hasn't changed his mind with no new information?

Playing Devil's Advocate, there is new information in that David Griffin is in charge and not Dell. I do not believe there has been anything from AD's camp since Griff said he wants AD back. Not unexpected considering they have not sat down, but initially the firing of Dell/hiring of Griff has not changed anything.

And I understand that they haven't met to discuss Griff's vision and thus it is not news until they do, but to claim this is the stupidest thing Fletch has ever reported is really underselling the idiocy of some of his previous tweets.

I never said it was the stupidest :)

And texts and calls are one things. Griffin is coming with rocket launchers to the meeting

They should play an escape the room game with him using your clues. When they open the door Raja Bell and Trajan Langdon are there for hugs.

Baw why'd you make your twitter private?

To let you know where I am coming from with Fletch, he used to slurp me and then trade me false information for real info. He would ask me things about the CBA and then literally copy and paste my answers into his blog and offer no credit or even a thanks. He is a snake. He is worse than you think he is.

I remember that and that is how he works. A lot of the info he posts is from his (or his interns) searches on the internet. He does not do a good job of giving credit when he gets that info.
