He's the guy who hired Jim Benning, and upon seeing what a wonderful job he was doing as GM, fired Linden and made him GM/POHO. Becasue what Jim really needed was more responsibility and control I guess. He also hired a head coach before even finding a replacement after firing Benning. I don't think any of us wanted any of that.
Hands off means to me, what i hope for from an owner:
Hire a really strong POHO, let him hire his own GM, let them make coaching and personnel decisions, be willing to spend money. The stay out of the way part is everything but the 1st decision, and maybe part of the 2cnd. That's it. Being a 'superfan' owner is useful for the spending money part i guess.[/B][/B]
Edit: I have no idea why my reply is all in bold. I meant to only bold your last sentence.
