assertive averaged bumps certainly direction divergent ensure excel excitement experience fans games improved lead listened managers mistakes order overall past provided purchased responsibility road season since stronger views winning year
I have certainly made mistakes in the past by not being more assertive when bumps in the road appeared. Larry, Theo and other managers in the organization do not need me in order to excel at what they do, but I have a responsibility to ensure that divergent views and our overall direction lead to a better and stronger organization. We've averaged winning more than 95 games a year since we purchased the club. We've listened to the fans and improved the fan experience greatly. We have provided excitement during the season as well as the off-season.
