“I made a couple of mistakes there. I accept the responsibility, and I’m going to move forward. I will say this about my experience in New England, I’m very proud of the work I did there. The players, I enjoyed just about as much as any team I’ve ever had, some really good people in the organization. The fan base was good. The people in Boston were great. So overall, it was it is a really positive experience for me. And I’m disappointed in the way it ended. But I’ve learned from that.”
