For over a decade now, they've paraded mediocre team after mediocre team in front of us all while trumpeting the same song and dance "we have the talent! we just need to execute!" When is enough, enough? when will it be acceptable for fans to demand progress? Do you get what I'm saying? Its not that we aren't patient, its just that after a decade of treading water, we are tired- how long before we drown?
Well duh, isn't that what all teams do? What are they supposed to do? Draft horrible players and then go "hey, we're a horrible team, come cheer us on"

I don't think anyone has ever pegged us as "elite". Fans or otherwise. We have the potential to be good as soon as we work out the kinks in the system. How long will that take? Well. 18 years apparently. I think everyone is frustrated and wants to win. Including the players.
