If he had emotional intelligence- he would have been delivering a message apologizing to the fans and teammates for his miserable season. Taking responsibility as a contributing factor to missing the playoffs. That's being a leader. That's honesty.
Media in this city let these players off the hook and don't ask the tough questions. A lot of media in this city spend most of their time being apologists for the franchise and the players. Now that's even more honesty. I'm not saying media should make their everyday relations/workplace awkward but that's what makes a courageous reporter. Andersson should be facing the tough questions and being called out for the pathetic season he had --- but he wasn't because he's a nice guy and he's been around for a long time and this city's media is soft.
