92-98 were some lean years. My point was regarding the "Snyder curse", Snyder may have come along and messed shit up, but we were already far removed from the glory days.

True the wheels were coming off, but Snyder got in the drivers seat and drove it off a cliff. Than walked down to the burning vehicle and poured gasoline on it. Than he picked up what was left and tied it in a bag with heavy chains and sunk it in the middle of the ocean.
Atleast we were not a laughing stock.

That sounds like the script of a Bang! cartoon.

Exactly. It really looked like Casserly finally had the team ready to turn the corner in 99. Snyder had nothing to do with that playoff team but somehow gets credit as one of his few playoff years. LOL. We all saw what happened once he really took control in 2000.
