    Alexander had the guts to go the uncoventional route when he hired Morey. Alexander also stays out of the way and let's his basketball people do their job unlike that nutjob in Dallas.

    Alexander does not get the credit that he deserves for being a good owner.

    I've gotta admit, Morey has performed beyond my expectations.

    It may not pan out, but the man has been off the charts.

    Now, someone needs to start a Morey photoshop thread.

    I am always in to give Les a pat on the back. He has always tried to put out a championship team. It doesn't always pan out but he gives it his all. No question about that.

    Word. Now I'd be more impressed if we keep Landry.

    Les is a better owner than that con-man Drayton.

    The Morey hire was genius

    They didn't have the money to get him. I'm glad we weren't the ones who over payed for him. I don't think Les is cheap but he has not been able to understand the need for a larger number of good role players in the past. He is starting to realize the need for more depth over the last 2 years.
