If the remarks that Timlin made to the media have that kind of an effect on the team chemistry, then it was obviously much shakier than any of us were led to believe.
Timlin, who has always made himself available to the media, ought to reconsider this in the future. What team needs one of their players airing their dirty laundry for public consumption? At first I thought the comments made last night came out of the heat of the moment of having just lost the game. After hearing him repeat the same sentiments today on the radio I realize how out of place this was, especially coming from someone who has been inconsistent at best since the ASB.
