Heard what he wrote and heard his apology.

To say the fans don't have anything to gripe about is BS. We purchase the merchandise, we purchase the food at the game, we pay the cost to go see the game, we pay for Sunday ticket, we pay the parking fee, we pay for a lot. If it was not for the fan money would not be coming in to pay for their salaries. As a fan we all feel we are getting taken to the cleaners already. Some of us can't even afford to go to a game due to cost or distance. All in all we want to get what we are paying for. We are paying for a Cadalac and their giving us a Chevy Cavalier. A good car no doubt that runs well but it's not a Cadalac. As the announcers said on 106.7 last night, it's not like we lost one or two games and no one should be bitching....this has been going on for a dacade or two. Mediocracy. People have grown to except mediocracy. "It's just a game." " Their busting their butts." and so on.

I think we all know they are working hard but for some reason our team seems to be stagnant on offense in the Red zone and it's been this way for over 10yrs. One would think they would have figured out the problem by now.

I have no hard feelings toward any player upset with the fan base. They are busting their butts and not getting results they are frustrated. We as fans are frustrated for seeing the same problems year after year. He was not suited up so he was a spectator also just as frustrated as the rest of us.

Apology excepted.
