@RightSaidFred -- definitely share your thoughts. That said, sometimes I think we have to take a "what's past is prologue" approach and move on. Negative thought becomes burdensome.

I was thinking this just like you the other day -- debating whether this process will cause me to change my allegiances to the team. But, after not much deliberation, I was reminding myself of why I cheer for this team in the first place. And that reasoning has nothing to do with who sits up in the press box. It's about the city the team represents and deep roots and history it has in our community. It's the time I get to spend on warm summer and brisk fall nights in a cozy east-end neighbourhood with 25,000 or so that I consider friends -- give or take. That's pretty cool -- and not many cities have the ability to replicate that experience.

Mouthpieces like Scott Mitchell come and go -- and in the big picture they are a blip on the radar. So, I'm always hesitant to get so infuriated by the workings of a select, and very small, few when measured against the entire scope of team and city history.
