Commodores Quote of the Day

“I think that’s probably hardest things playing in market such as Chicago. It’s one where you have to be very careful with your words and if you’re not careful, they could easily be misconstrued into something you didn’t mean or intend. No matter what answer you give, no matter if you don’t like your teammate, the one thing you want to come out and say is, ‘Well, I think he does a great job being a leader.’ In your mind, you’re like, ‘This guy is probably one of the worst leaders ever.’ But you can’t outwardly say that because you’re going to get crushed by the media.”
