If funding was the answer why didn't "they" just provide more during MW's tenure? The US team just played better the last two years. IIRC the BCA,Predator and CSI put up the funds for the oversea trip to Russia. If that's the case why didn't they do that for MW? Money always helps but i still believe JR's(andJJ's) methods were/are better. I like MW but US teams under him played REALLY bad on multiple occasions.
I didn't say funding is the answer.
But clearly, money to do all the stuff JR did to help the team, didn't exactly hurt his odds either. I don't know why additional monies were not made available during MWs tenure.
