[QUOTE="Croak, post: 305044, member: 2367"] I believe there are some legitimate expectations from fans. We can expect that the team in which we invest will put a quality product on the field. We pay for that product through ticket prices, concessions, souvenirs, tours, etc. When we pay $200 for a leather coat advertising the team, we expect a quality product in return. Therefore fans have a right to take an interest in the "product" and the apparent lack of action toward improving that product. It is interesting that the article takes a "we'll stay the course" attitude. Is it wrong to expect the product on the field to improve rather than "stay the course"? We get disturbed when a number of parts of that product are broken and not replaced. This doesn't mean we have to go out and get big name free agents, but it does mean we can expect Thompson to do what is reasonable to replace all the injuries. Even if there weren't injuries, we should expect the team to progress. When it doesn't someone should be made accountable. Vince Lombardi never settled for just being good. He insisted on excellence. This management seems to be happy with being good. We want excellence. That's all I have to say about that. (maybe) :preach: [/QUOTE]
