The point isn't that anybody wants to come in eighth. The point is a team in the highest quartile of wins over a ten year stretch is terrible and it isn't a dumpster fire. It's what many of us have been saying all along: a decent team that needs to get better defensive personnel in place before we can be competitive with the very best teams in the league.
And we say this, not because of some childish notion that we're satisfied with the status quo, but because we believe the context is important for talking about where and how much the team actually needs to improve. And it's hard to have that conversation in a room full of people screaming that everything's broken and that they demand everything be fixed immediately, you know, because they just want it more than we do.
And you should really give up trying to tell everyone else what the
proper opinions and feelings on the subject should be.
Stop trying to impart the
correct amount of satisfaction or dissatisfaction other should have.
You try to infer that others' opinions are off base while at the same time believing that your position is the sensible and rational one when that's not the case at all.
As for who "wants" it more? No side makes the claim stronger than yours. Again, mistakenly believing that their own position is the 'right one' and that they alone understand what this team has and what this team needs. The height of both arrogance and ignorance.
Nobody has all of the answers to what this team needs, least of all the people in the building. To pretend otherwise is foolish.
And we all have the right to express our opinions on the subject freely. Nobody has the right to tell anyone else how they should feel about it.
