Inexplicible and inexcusable.

On this one I can buy the oft expressed explanation which is many in the organization, led by the owner himself, felt that the younger brother of David Carr could potentially be subjected to an environment of harsh criticism and ridicule at the first sign of any issues which would make his success that much more difficult to realize.
It is a weak willed group that doesn't draft a guy because of fan sentiment. I can't imagine O'Brien operating that way. I think it far more likely they just totally blew their evaluation of Carr.
