Emery is the new GM

Some of you seem disappointed in the press conference. I do not understand what you expected. I thought he did fine and said the right things. I did not expect anything of substance and no one should have.

 

Here is a link to an excellent article on Emery GakMan linked to it earlier in this thread. I urge all those concerned about Emery to read it. I am very encouraged by what it said.

By the way: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/orientated

 

Adj. 1. orientated - adjusted or located in relation to surroundings or circumstances; sometimes used in combination; "the house had its large windows oriented toward the ocean view"; "helping freshmen become oriented to college life"; "the book is value-oriented throughout"

oriented

 

orientating, orienting - positioning with respect to a reference system or determining your bearings physically or intellectually; "noticed the bee's momentary orienting pause before heading back to the hive"; "an orienting program for new employees"

 

There is some debate on the net as to it's validity, but it is defined and not one of those weird made-up words that Angelo would use and cause every newsman and writer to make fun of him. I really do not think it matters. We did not hire a professional speaker, we hired a GM.

All I know is Angelo shoulda been fired right after he said the Solutions Business, DirtyPool, garbage...

I don't think a press conference is particularly that important but what we heard (or what little we heard since he didn't actually say anything) I was not impressed. He beat around every question, kept using the same words over and over again, even made up the word "orientated", and I didn't like how he didn't really take ownership of being the man in charge. Kept deflecting that towards "working together as a team" instead of showing that leadership and letting it be known that he's the guy that's making the decision. It's just a gripe. As long as he drafts well and gets players in free agency, I'm good.

 

 

Man, people say I'm pessimistic.
