Wow! What a great thread. I'm glad that I'm retired and had enough time to read so much of it.
I have to commend
@robertweathers for the way he represented his opinion here, in spite of much criticism.
I'm still not buying the idea that BB decided to bench Butler based on performance.
At some point I'll have to start another thread about BB's biggest mistakes. This one will be right up there but it won't be #1 on my list.
This loss was a very tough pill to swallow and the fans deserve a real explanation, in spite of what the nut huggers, as
@patsfan13 playfully called them, may think. We do pay the freight after all.
Without knowing the facts it looks like BB let his ego get in the way of #12 getting #6. Too bad but I won't be losing any sleep over it. I've been able to see my football team go to 10 SB's and win 5 of them. I can live with that.
