Mike & Mike: low expectations for the Skins

[calia]

I think all of the folks who are expressing skepticism based on last year haven't looked very hard at last year's W-L record -- by this I mean that a very large number of losses were by a handful of points. In other words, even with a terrible D last year (and it was), we still managed to make games close even when we lost. A few plays in the other direction (e.g., a few turnovers going our way), and last year's record would have potentially been quite different.

Bottom line: last year was last year, and even last year could be the springboard for something better.
