How fast can a aircraft carrier make a u-turn? The fact is the wheel is turned long before you can see the boat change direction. The Sabres have already turned the wheel. The change in direction will follow. It takes time.

But do you think it HAD to take time? The team was 9-7 with Orton and freaking EJ. Rex came in, talked about being a "bully," and turned our feared defense into a group of 300+ pound ballet dancers wearing football helmets.

 

And do not think that I excuse the players; Mario broke my heart as a fan. But the rest of the defense runs around like a disorganized, undisciplined group of losers.

 

Not good, no matter how one attempts to paint it.

This is a good read to put things in perspective:

 

"The people in your company have little loyalty; some even want you to fail. Your star performers expect constant pampering. Your stockholders are impatient, demanding quick results. And the media scrutinize and second-guess your every move....."

Why did Jack get MY prime parking space? You promised that space to me when Simon resigned and you know I deserve it.

 

The fact that there is a 4 page thread on whether a team that hasn't seen the playoffs since my youngest's 1st birthday is well managed just shows to go you that we'll talk about anything!
