what's the alternative though? sucking only half the time for the next five years?VF21 said:Sacramento fans have become spoiled. They aren't going to easily accept "expect to suck for a couple of years."
Look again. I said they aren't going to EASILY accept the proposition of sucking for a couple of years to get better. And that's true for a lot of fans, especially the younger ones who haven't lived through bad times before.
It isn't a matter of an alternative, IMHO. We ARE going to suck for a while, unless Petrie is able to pull off the deal of the century for player(s) that will immediately vault us back into top contention. I think the odds of that are about the same as me winning last Saturday's lotto (and I didn't buy any tickets).
