F*** YOU WAYNE!

Yes I do, for precisely the reason you cite: Spielman has spent years deferring to Wanny. I get more of the image of him as a kid who's finally been handed the keys to the family car and told to test it out on the open road.
There's a certain ethics to business that ALL successful businesses recognize....and that is you DON'T publicly berate others within your organization. It hurts the business overall and makes the person making the statements, more often than not, look like a jack-***. OF COURSE Spielman is going to support Wanny, but, at the same time, tidbits flow out about the differences in their opinions on draftees (and Spielman had better choices in most).
Imagine if Spielman would've said to the media, "No Dave's picks were obviously stupid, but I couldn't talk his hard-headed azz out of 'em." He would have looked like a clown and that would've brought more problems to the organization.
