Sports has always had these a-type sociopaths. It's really unfortunate, but you see this type of thing is your corporate environment more and more as time passes. Look up the documentary CBC did of sociopaths in the workplace and read the book. I imagine a professional sports organization where you have such a short window for winning in a leadership position pretty much ensures you hire these people who self-promote at the expense of everyone else and selling results rather than actually getting results. The classic finger point - it was everyone else not doing their job but look all these great things I did.


When I heard Brian Burke lament that it's a sad day for Babcock and his family and that he's a great human being, I lost a lot of respect for the guy. You hear a lot of these stories, obviously not contrived, and you realize Burke was standing up for a real POS.
