I didn't hear the bit on Stralman so I'll take you at your word that he actually said he made a mistake and give him credit on that... which would bring the grand total of transactional mistakes I can remember Burke admitting to having personally made in his 30 year career to two. But saying that he wanted to trade Backs when he arrived isn't admitting to a mistake (actually trading him would have been).

Never said they didn't. I'm just saying that Burke isn't any more honest then his contemporaries. They all lie and Burke is no exception. Being an opinionated loudmouth doesn't equate to honesty.
Regardless, he and I at least share the same opinion on Incubus.
