So ... Can Allen veto the new HC? If M. Brown says "I want this [UFA] guy" and Campbell says "no, no ... there's a rookie at that position who we can draft with our top pick and who will be better long term" and new HC says "ummm, guys, those are decent enough players but they don't fit what we are trying to do here. I really need X or Y [neither of who MB or SC think is particularly worth the cost]".

It sounds to me that either (1) BA is filling the traditional role of GM -> final say on player acquisitions ; or (2) We will have a multi-headed player acquisition morass with factions and the potential for lots of internal in-fighting.

If (1), then I am okay with it as long as BA is relying on MB and SC for the actual evaluations.

If (2), wash, rinse and repeat of our losing ways. Won't matter who they bring it.
