I'm not trying to act like I knew they were headed here, I was simply one of the first to recognize the mess they're in as a result of that extension (after the fact).
In terms of what can be blamed on the front office with KP, let's talk again when training camp hits. If they see what I see, they'll take action.
I don't think they are in a mess except that they don't have their #2 guy. I think quite a few teams are going to be willing to pay KP that money at his salary for what he does bring.
Everyone has pitch porks for KP because they expect him to be an all star next to Luka and he isn't. As long as we don't have a #2 it completely holds us back as a team. But getting stars isn't exactly easy, especially when you can't trade a draft pick over the next 4 drafts. I don't think KP is keeping us from a path to another star at this point.
