Part 6/7:
Clemens argues that Shane's cold demeanor and lack of genuine concern for player well-being should not come as a surprise to anyone following his tenure closely. He criticizes the media for seeming suddenly shocked by Shane's behavior, arguing that the GM has always operated under a hard-nosed, transactional framework.
Clemens urges Giants fans to embrace the reality of who Shane is and the management style he employs, rather than holding onto an idealized version of what they wish he could be. He warns against the emotional responses that often cloud rational discussions about a team's management decisions, especially when it comes to how fans perceive and interact with the organization.
