We aren't a fanbase of maltontents, nattering nabobs of negativism, bibbers or self soilers.

This franchise has earned the distrust we currently see from the fans.

Look at the posts we see on this board.

People who have been posting here for years, who have faithfully supported this team, are now devoid of hope and trust in this organization.

Some of the same people who espoused "In Gene we Trust" have reached the breaking point.  I have been one of the few voices preaching patience in the face of repeated losing seasons.  It's very hard to do so now.

Amen. 

I can optimistically float scenarios of how to plug the holes, but I have very low actual expectation that more than 50% of those plugs will hold up throughout the season enough to equate to a .500 season or better.
