I think things went sideways last season for MT ... First the injury, then frustration over the healing timeline then last but not least attitude and behavior. SP called time out ... don't think MT ever got over it and knowing SP reputation ... rivers run deep.

Hard for me to believe that a professional athlete of MT stature would not realize is ankle was still not progressing on schedule and take the initative and responsibility to notify the team and physician of his ankle's status.

Can not say with certainty where the team was during this offseason decision making process. ML was very diplomatic on the issue in his presser, SP not so much. Could the concerns and opinions on the timing and recommendation for surgery been discussed by the staff, Doctor and MT but then the protocol not followed. Something didn't happen that should have happen ... SP's comments kinda point that direction.
