let me say, I've never been pro-eisner, but i always kinda thought you guys (you know who you are) hammered the guy for everything, no matter how small.
I remember a couple threads recent about how he IS responsible fro all the failures. I didnt hop in too much on that one, but i thought it was a little wrong to blame him that you didnt like the color of paint on a particular building.
Well, I'm a convert. It seems he is totally captain micro-manage. So he just might stick his hand in everything, thereby making himself responsible for all the failings of all the different disney divisions.
Case in point- I got my issue of baseball weekly yesterday. It had a bunch of pages about the winter meetings with mock awards and a paragraph or 2 about each 'winner.' Stuff like best AL general manager (my boy Brian Cashman) or best trade made by a GM without a flak jacket (Alomar to the Mets...). Anyhow guess who won the 'best trade that never happened' award? Disney's angels. Apparentlyy they set up a great deal for all the parties involved, all the baseball people for the angels and the other side agreed it was wonderful (as well as baseball weekly). Well it seems they had to call mikey to get his permission and he decided to nix the whole thing because it was too risky. What the hec does he know about baseball? Does the mechanic have to call him to decide what weight oil to but in his car?
So AV and the rest of the gang- i think every screw up just might be caused by him.
