I also don't want this to seem like I am killing Ballard unnecessarily. I like Ballard. He's done some very good things. And I think he's been pretty humble, he's admitted mistakes and said he wants to learn from them. I don't have a big problem with Ballard. I just see some people (and it is possible I am conflating opinions I read here with things said elsewhere) wanting to encompass all outcomes and say "See, it was all according to Ballard's plan, what a genius, anyone that doubts is not a true fan, blah blah blah."

I'm not into hero worship. It's absurd. I hated it when Polian was here. I don't want that nonsense again.

So, how do you feel about the hero worship of, say, a Mike Doss?
