Can't disagree with him. We should be looking for a new POBO right now, unless Taylor is convinced Milt is the guy.

Poor Milt. He is NOT the guy. He's the guy that HELPS the guy.

I wouldnt mind them bringing in Danny Ferry. He seemed to do a real good job in Atlanta, until he was ousted.

That last line should read until he put his foot in his mouth. It's not like he was unreasonably forced out.

I heard the word African. That is a reference to a continent not a race. Reading a report that describes someone as African isn't racist. It might be wrong to characterize an African as being two-faced, but it seems as if some have made a jump that isn't supported.

Whoops

Whoops


The quote was a bit more than just calling him African. It started with, "He has a little African in him." Then it jumped up to, "Not in a bad way, but he's like a guy who would have a nice store out front and sell you counterfeit stuff out of the back. And then in closing describing Deng (and implying all persons of African descent) as a two-faced liar and cheat.

I think this is a good take Cam. I like Milt but I don't think he can be THE guy or at least he isn't ready now or in a few months. It would be nice if he stayed around but I don't have confidence in him being the main guy making the decisions.
