This has nothing to do with Cronin's behavior. I don't see where any of this is about that. References to something that happened yesterday has nothing to do with the beginning of the season which has always been a red flag when they don't dominate a bad team. That was the point.
You were the one making excuses for the team's poor performance in the first game, disputing that it meant anything.
Cronin has been the same since he got here and some of his teams performed very well. It's this team that hasn't responded and it isn't like they have no talent. I've been to Howland's practices and he was very hard on his team too, with a bad temper.
As for yesterday, I watched his press conference and it didn't seem much different than most of them. He often gets in to it with the reporters. What was unfortunate was that the exchange in the conference took the focus away from the Jamerson incident which was much worse.
