Criticism
Some have criticized ASG's handling of the Thrashers; Jeff Schultz of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution said that "it’s no secret that the Spirit has always cared more about basketball." ASG said they had "no other choice" to sell the Thrashers, even though they weren't "under the gun" of the NHL like the Phoenix Coyotes were. After the sale of the Atlanta Thrashers to True North Sports and Entertainment Schultz put out another article further criticizing ASG's management of the team "which has long lost any semblance of credibility".

Famous quotes containing the word criticism:
“... criticism ... makes very little dent upon me, unless I think there is some real justification and something should be done.”
—Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
“However intense my experience, I am conscious of the presence and criticism of a part of me, which, as it were, is not a part of me, but a spectator, sharing no experience, but taking note of it, and that is no more I than it is you. When the play, it may be the tragedy, of life is over, the spectator goes his way. It was a kind of fiction, a work of the imagination only, so far as he was concerned.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I am opposed to writing about the private lives of living authors and psychoanalyzing them while they are alive. Criticism is getting all mixed up with a combination of the Junior F.B.I.- men, discards from Freud and Jung and a sort of Columnist peep- hole and missing laundry list school.... Every young English professor sees gold in them dirty sheets now. Imagine what they can do with the soiled sheets of four legal beds by the same writer and you can see why their tongues are slavering.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
