Why shouldn't we be literal?

I don't see this comment as significantly more unnecessary as any comments the coach is prompted to make by the media. I don't see the comment as a borderline shot either. It was not a shot at Sven. It was a shot at the media (and I guess some posters here) who were reacting to Sven's benchings as if he was a hall of famer and not a rookie who's struggled at times.

Harmless quote IMO. Guess we'll have to agree to disagree since some of you seem to want to spin drama out of nothing. I will maintain that you and others are overreacting to a big extent. I doubt Sven gets bent out of shape at all by the comment which mean the comment somehow offends fans worse than the player? To me that is silly.
