    Tim Graham talks to Pegulas

    What traits were most important?

    TP: We are not going to disclose any of the things we used to pick our coach
    TP: I don't want to mention any other names.
    TP: I think those are all personal matters I don't need to discuss.
    TP: I don't want to discuss that. It's a private matter.
    KP: It doesn't do us any good to get into that.
    TP: That's a decision I would rather keep private,
    TP: That's our business.



    TP:
    There should be absolutely no confusion. Zero. Where is this confusion coming from?
    Ok.

    That was not comforting.

    Not even a little bit.

    Pointless is more accurate.

    I guess wide right is as close as we're ever going to get.

      Terry should just let Kim do all the talking.

        Dude they answered every question people have had and none of what they said made it seem like there incapable of being good owners. This is the first time someone elaborated on every head powers responsibility.
        Not here to be right, just here to have interesting discussions about my impulsive opinions

          The Pegulas are perfect.

          It's the world that's wrong.

            Is there anybody in the organization that can handle the media without butchering their answers?

              Lol, I don't get it.

              People want full disclosure?

              This isn't a court proceeding.

              This is a business where it's in your best interest to actually NOT tell everyone what you are thinking in every particular.

                I don't really see what people are upset about.

                Also this interview was well-received by the media and Graham himself commented that he completely understood where the Pegula's choose not to answer specific questions and that he was thankful for the opportunity to interview them.

                  If you watched the press conference when he bought the team, Terry Pegula tends to trip over his tongue, he is a terrible public speaker.

                  I can't hold that against him, as not everybody can speak with the eloquence of Ronald Reagan, or Bill Clinton.

                  HOWEVER....If you're going to enter this type of endeavor, you better be damn sure that the people who are going to speak for you, have clearly defined roles, and that you are there to back them up when addressing the press.

                  Sending Lynn out there by himself was a cowardly act.

                  And as for the incredulous retort about "How would they know we're dysfunctional???" Jeezus, just look at the results.

                  Even Levy, who was a great communicator himself, had a media consultant for the coaches and the players.

                  Why?

                  Because words matter.

                  And more importantly, they can be distorted, or mis-interpreted.

                    Sounds like Kim handles the big decisions.

                      Those public comments and actions have reactions and I'm not quite sure they completely get that yet. This isn't a private enterprise where you can issue a clarifying press release, button up shop and not address the issue ever again.

                        He Terry. Don't bother sending me my season ticket invoice. Why? That's a decision I'd rather keep private!

                          This whole thing reads like a corrupt government official who is facing a congressional hearing over a minor ethical violation,trying to answer the questions without incriminating himself on the mountain of illegal stuff they don't know about yet.

                            Answering a question with "I'm not going to answer that" is not answering a question.

                              Kim Pegula, alleged wunderkind, allegedly has a degree in public relations.
