I think people worry about how brash he can be and if it rubs the players the wrong way, but my experience with people is that they very much appreciate candid honesty. I'm sure Backlund had heard that before, and really appreciates the truth, and hearing about how he's made his management team change their minds on him and his value to the organization.

Actually, I have to agree with Mr. Whistle.
Burke is more or less an open book. He says what he thinks.
