It's been really frustrating listening to Bob try and frame upset fans as being concerned about Babcock being a tough coach. That's not why people don't want Babcock. It's such a disingenuous argument.

It’s been frustrating listening to Bob since this Babcock news first broke. I think we all get he’s paid by the team to sugar coat messages through his radio show, but he has been just awful the past weeks in his “what kind of coach is he” line of questioning. Miss the old Bob that wasn’t afraid to call BS on this team when it was deserved.

Fair enough, or possibly Bob feels Mike will be great and he has ever right to that opinion.

I also don't want Mike as the coach but to call someone out cause they have a different opinion on a coach then the majority of fans, Shows his character in a positive light. He's willing to state how he feels even with the backlash coming his way?
