How can you change a culture in a place that has needed a change for 10 years without being an asshole?

Marty was a real asshole when he came here in 1989, but no one was freaking out about it.
Many of the players cried like little bitches when Marty arrived. Albert Lewis hated Carl from day 1.
Of course, two years prior to Marty's arrival the players had a meeting and threatened a mutiny if they didn't keep the fighter pilot. Look what that got us.

Good luck, 'Nard. I think you suck but if you need to be hugged, I hope that eases the sting of being a marginal player.
