I'm not blaming anyone because when you are drafting in the twenties every year, it is difficult to keep a solid roster.We now have talent all over the field, but I don't think we are quite there yet.  We have a chance this year, but there are two or three teams with better rosters than we have.  I am very pleased with our team this year, and any wins we are yet to have is just icing on the cake.  Thompson and McCarthy have done an extraordinary job in a short period of time, and those that have denigrated Thompson shame on you!  I am happy the national media is giving him his kudos.  He's earned them.</blockquote>
