The point is that, making fun of players physical appearance publicly like he did with Andersson has very little, if any, positive benefit. It just doesn't come across as being very professional.
Tend to agree with bolded part about Burke in general. I am glad there is an experienced guy at the top, I guess, but whenever I hear Burke I think to myself "There's a guy who is not quite as smart as he thinks he is".

Certainly ironic for a guy with Burke's sense of style to make fun of another person's appearance.
