Being a successful business is part of being a successful sports franchise. Most business guys don't know a lot about the sports side, and more sports guys don't know a lot about the business side.
So... do you hire a business-minded President and give him authority over the GM, or do you hire a sports-minded President and give him authority over the marketing and sales? Instead, you can hire a business-minded President and give him authority over the business side, and then a sports-minded President and give him authority over the GM.
The difference: Ken King hired Feaster, Brian Burke hired Treliving.
