if the answer is no or none to those questions, you can not say that anyone involved in this process is an idiot. you can say you would have rather them pick someone else or you wish you could hear from management why they chose that player over player x of your choosing, but you can not say that they are an idiot. that implies they made the wrong decision despite an overwhelming amount of evidence to the contrary. we don't even know the facts that the decision was based upon.
