Quote:I wasn't the one trying to make the point that it's mostly our Rookie and 2nd year players that are making the mistakes.

How foolish of me to point that out in a thread about all the rookie mistakes.

You're not the sharpest tool in the shed I see.

It's amazing that well coached teams don't have the types of mistakes (rookie or otherwise) as we do... Just something to ponder...

That's not true.

Rookies almost universally make mistakes regardless of who they play for.

We have an abnormally high number of rookies and second year players that get significant playing time due to our roster make up. Because of that, the odds of us seeing rookie/youthful mistakes is much higher than the average team.

Seems pretty straightforward.

I guess you put some of that down to the pressure of chasing a desperate situation. But I'm sure we will also hear them described as "rookie mistakes" again and references made to our "young team".

I'm just wondering how much longer these suicidal mistakes can be blamed on inexperience?

There are so many good things to feel optimistic about, it's a pity these bad judgement calls are undermining us.

They gutted the team, and made them all rookies (the very young inexperince was their doing) and then they use it as an excuse three years into their regime...

seems silly to me that the owner wants to keep them another year...

heres to 4-12 next season too.
