Thats not a good analogy, and she made it sound so certain that there was no doubt it would be changed. I'm only bringing this stuff up because im neutral with VF. I think she abuses her power as a mod by closing about 1/4 of topics, and even reposts them as her own if she doesn't see them "fit", like the poll about who should be coach. But at the same time she has done great things for this community, and her confidence with this subject COULD have had an effect on the Maloofs, seeing the public outcry.
reading the threads over the past week, it sounded like it was, but i do believe that VF did say that she could be wrong and that she'd happily eat crow if she were.
she also said that her source had been right many times before, so there wasn't really a reason to doubt it. i mean, i don't think she was proclaiming it as absolute law or anything.

I am not going to assume that either
a) Maloofs intentionally leaked "Whiz hiring" rumour to test the response from the community or
b) that Maloofs were intent on hiring Whiz until the leak generated uproar forced them to change their mind, but I do have my suspicions. First and foremost, Maloof do know their stuff when it comes to service business and they are not that much of a risk taker when all polls are 9-1 against your decision.
Either way, hiring Musselman after we were all expecting Whiz, makes the decision look much, much better.

I'll help you VF21
I think VF's post was spot on when she made it. Given the history of her information and how many other sources wound up reporting it. Things do change quickly in business. Anyway, VF's leak might have helped prevent the hiring. I can just imagine Petrie showing the Maloofs the fan poll here that had 93% of people agains the hiring
Well, I'm glad I got my number one choice of coaches, so VF, I'll help you eat any crow they serve you. Thank you for the scoop and keep them coming.

I was wrong. I will gladly say so with nothing but relief. I am very glad that John Whisenant is going to remain with the reigning champion Sacramento Monarchs. I think Eric Musselman has a great opportunity - for him, for us and for the Kings.
I'm a Kings fan. I'm a moderator on the BEST Kings message board on the Internet. I do not feel I have to apologize for sharing information I had been given. In the future, if I'm again given something before it hits the news, I will probably still share it here.
If some of you choose not to believe me, that's entirely your decision. And I applaud for it. You should always question; you should always look deeper than the surface. I will tell you this - I would gain nothing whatsoever by posting something I've made up. In fact, I don't gain anything by posting information that turns out to be correct. The only benefit - if it can be called that - is to the members of this forum who sometimes get a little heads-up on what's happening behind the scenes of our beloved Kings.
So if some of you think I have egg on my face or that I should be consuming massive qualities of crow, no problem.
At least we have a coach that I firmly believe is a much better option than John Whisenant.
Now and forever...go Kings!!!
