BREAKING: Bobby Webster is still the GM of the Toronto Raptors; team won't hire president, Rogers is in charge now

The Toronto Raptors announced on Monday that Bobby Webster will remain as the team's General Manager and will head up basketball operations as the team will not be hiring a new Team President after all. In Episode 1926, Sean Woodley digs into the strange run of decision-making up top that very much makes it clear that Keith Pelley, Ed Rogers and the Rogers suits have fully assumed control of the franchise, why it's more encouraging that they've chosen Webster to run the show going forward than it would have been in if they hired Dwane Casey or Marc Eversley, and why it feels like a strange middle-ground decision that further underscores that the Masai Ujiri firing wasn't entirely (or at all) basketball motivated. Sean also gets into why the stability of keeping Webster around is good news for the team going into this season, and why it's reasonable to feel optimistic about where the team is heading under his leadership, even if there is a run of not-so-good decision-making in the front office's recent past. Lastly, Sean looks for kernels of optimism as Rogers continues to consume our lives even more by the day, and looks to the recent run of Toronto Blue Jays competitiveness as a major reason to believe that Rogers, even if for cynical reasons, is going to invest in the team being successful.  Discord: https://discord.gg/CAK3mCCjSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
