Even if his influence on the team doesn't last longer than any of the other "turning points" this season, I like how straight talking he is. Reading today, it seems he even addressed the notion of a racial divide in the clubhouse during yesterdays team meeting. He said he didn't believe there was one, but he'd heard a lot about it and decided to talk about it just in case.
Nice to see an end to the usual "everything's fine" spin if nothing else.
