This is a large part of my concerns. Not just the decision to hire DA, or the bizarre press conference, or even the fact that Gayle had to go around him to fire DA, but everyone seems to have memory-holed him calling a meeting with all the players at the end of the season to tell them to shut up about how bad DA was and to fall in line. It's been like finding out Loomis was a flat earther, and not just to troll people, like he actually believes it. Hard to take him seriously after all that.
