We have seen and heard enough to know that Darryl is a good guy in general away from the game so I don't understand why he has to be so prickly with media. I don't think it endures him to the fans and I don't think it's a great look for the team in general. You can just imagine what Coronato and other rookies are thinking about when the see the clips and the chatter about Sutter not wanting to play rookies.

Yeah I'm tired of it too.
I'm not fist clinching - fire the coach - losing my mind angry about it, and I don't want the guy fired, but I'm tired of it too.
He only needs to adjust the top 5% of his reactions though. Nobody needs the guy to be a touchy feely saint with the media, just tone down the most obnoxious stuff.
And I still don't see much of a line to Coronato like many are making.
