Send in the clowns

[Mr. Session]

I am losing count of how many consecutive years we've been having discussions like this and I am also as apathetic as I've ever been about this product.

Maybe the Irsay family is actually okay with the mediocrity?

- They haven't hired an experienced HC that has proven they can establish/maintain a culture since Dungy.

- This paper from 2013 appears to argue the average length of a GM's career is 3 years, Why has Ballard been enabled like he has? - https://digitalcommons.law.villanova...4&context=mslj

- Are we finally done with the "Andrew Luck" excuse? It's absurd that there is an argument that Grigson was better at this than Ballard. That is a major, major failure on ownership's part.

- Ownership has also proven they are liars. They lie every year. They'll say whatever they have to say to keep people buying tickets. They are small, petty lies but they add up and we've been consuming these lies for almost a decade now. Empty fucking calories and now we're going brain dead from the caloric deficit.

I will say I am a little relieved shit appears to be falling apart now. Part of me was concerned that a good run here may put the organization in a spot where they afforded Ballard another year.

Right now it looks like Steichen is doing his best to get fired too, which imo offers a better circumstance. We can bring in a new HC & GM, let them deal with AR for a year and see what they want to do, and then let them draft the QB they want to draft if they deem they need to move on.
