Fat lady finally sang 🎶 [Saints Eliminated]
If you want to see them win when it counts we'll need an infusion of the best talent in each round in the draft as we can get. If you want to see them win at the end of a lost season you must not care about the future very much. Which is fine, but maybe you can keep THAT over there.
My stances on these things are established and immutable:
I don’t whine over draft position
When the players care, the fans care
Losing on purpose creates losers
We only get 17 of these a year, I would like to see as much winning as possible
I am not a pretend general manager, I do not trouble myself with the stress of being a participant without the capacity to make an impact (or the financial benefit) - while you’re pretending you call the shots and make the tough calls (and, for emphasis: you don’t), I’m thinking about the kid gathered with family watching in the only social setting that brings family together, I’m thinking about the hardworking single parent who used their meager Christmas bonus to take their kid and kid’s best friend to their first game, I’m thinking about people who love this team with all their heart who have one last chance to watch before they pass away - my hope is that all these people experience the itinerant ease that comes with a win
“Who cares more about the future” is not a measuring contest I have any interest in participating in, so you can have that if you want it, but it doesn’t mean anything to me
