Anyways .. we have our new daytime soap opera to watch and it looks this one will be good. We are just a fringe side character.

My take on that situation was that in discussion with ownership they told him he'd be part of the conversation. Whether that meant a vote on a candidate, or just his opinion we don't know. I suspect more the latter.

But he got his nose out of joint because they said they would talk to him then they didn't. I'd instantly be very distrusting of my management if they told me they'd consult me on something like that, then immediately reneged on the situation. Not saying its enough to justify the trade demand but I suspect there's more to it anyway. Final straw after the Hopkins trade?
