    I'm not so sure the numbskulls in Seattle could decipher that.

    If that was a dig at Olshey, I think Dame is the type that will talk to Seattle directly. If he feels like Olshey is a reason why he may not want to be here in the future.

    like Blazerkor said, if that was really Dame upset with Olshey, he may very well be inclined to talk to Seattle himself

    wishful thinking though

    If Paul were still here, Dame definitely would. I don't know that Dame has any relationship at all with the skaliwags running this ship.

    The whole thing is wishful thinking but the idea that Dame would make his feelings known is not. That seems to be the type of guy he is. I could see him reaching out to Jody the same way he did Paul.

    for sure

    and the way Olshey treated Stotts in that presser could not have gone over very well with Dame. Might not gone over real well with several Blazers. Not Nurk though...:)

    I would guess it means stay focused regardless who's watching or not, and who's pissed & bitching or not, or who's supportive or not?
