Quote:I always love it when simpletons like you throw out the "excuses" label. 

 

I have yet to hear Gus make a single excuse. 

 

I don't consider FACTS to be excuses, but I understand that FACTS tend to confuse the likes of you, so you have to label them as something, and excuses is the best you can come up with. 

 

The truth is, FACTS indicate that the 5-21 record, as painful as it has been from the perspective of fans, is the end result of years of bad drafting and personnel decisions that had to be undone.  It's the result of a complete change of philosophy where the team is building almost exclusively through the draft for the first 2 seasons under the current regime. 

 

It is a FACT that this is one of the youngest rosters in the league as a result of the purge of garbage that was done over the past 2 years, and that we are putting the young players on the field in order to allow them to develop as players so that when we hit year 3, we'll know EXACTLY where this team stands in their rebuilding process.

 

It's not the fault of the front office, the coaching staff, or the owner that some of their fans are so incredibly thick headed and incapable of understanding that it takes time to build the team using the approach they've chosen.

 

Nobody here is saying Gus is the savior as the head coach.  You're just not capable of understanding the point that the jury is still out despite the record, and it's FACTS, not excuses that have determined the current record he has as a head coach. 

There ya go again spouting off FACTS that people either choose to ignore or can't comprehend...You should know better by now

 

Don't you know that EVERY single rookie we have that will ever be worth his salt, should have come right out of college and in less than a full season develop into Hall of Fame material? I mean Geesh...how many days does it really take for players to develop? In 30-90 days they should be fully developed and free from any rookie mistakes...
