I think most people don't have much problem with him calling out fans.  (There's a few.  Some were upset over Blake's kindergarten comment and still are).  The problem is the mentality that he has.  "Gotta trust the process."  That's about the worst mentality you can have.


To Quote Einstein:  "Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."


Persistence is great.  You gotta have persistence.  But that doesn't mean you don't change things up.  It doesn't mean you keep at the same process until it works.  It means you keep at it until you find something that does work.  Results DO matter.  Wins DO matter.  If you aren't getting wins in the third year, the process isn't working.  I don't think that's unreasonable, and I don't think fans are unreasonable to be outraged that Lewis said they have to trust the process as if the process that hasn't yielded results has earned that trust.  It's like the Gene Smith Defense Squad.  


In a way it makes sense that this is Gus's mentality.  Trust the process.  Trust the gameplan.  Don't make second half adjustments, trust the process that got you through the first half.
