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.

At the Brian Burke luncheon I heard him admit to all sorts of mistakes from his time with different teams. I don't recall the full story but there was a pretty big one that involved the Sedins.
I appreciate the openness he gives us as fans whether you agree or disagree.
