Most have not bashed him...maybe a select few. But why is it difficult to understand that his opportunity has passed? CBJ reached out and gave him a shot, and he chose to stay with a coach who was clearly on the hot seat. I would doubt CBJ would give him a shot again. He had a chance to come home and be a legend. He will be fine, but I see no problem not pursuing him anytime soon.
Now THIS is a sensible statement in opposition to Tee coming back.
