@mayjay as a lawyer for many years, I concur. The stories about the assistant AD and DP’s “advisors”, assuming they are accurate and thus evidence, allow for different interpretations. In this case, we (I include myself) tend to prefer an interpretation that supports our gut feeling that something is off. This is a form of confirmation bias, even if we turn out to be correct. I am really looking forward to finding out exactly what’s going on. I expect it may not be until after the season, if ever.
BTW, my favorite DP moment so far was after the TTech game during the presser. DP called Flory out for being too modest and said Flory was the best defender in the league/nation. That was a sweet moment between the two of them and raised my opinion of DP as a player and a leader.
