Say what you want about Dannyboy but u can't accuse him of not trying. I don't know if Cooke would have tried nearly as hard and he may have been content with being mediocre. Its not like we had great teams those first few years and Snyder messed things up. I think that we may have developed some talent if Snyder hadn't messed around with FA so much but its not like anything is guaranteed. U still have to scout, draft and develop players which requires a good FO and coaching staff.

The bottom line is that hindsight is 20-20. I would take an owner who wants to win any day over an owner who is dead broke and is satisfied with mediocrity (and its possible that Cooke would have been content with just being competitive after spending that much on the team).
