[QUOTE="MidtownJacket, post: 824369, member: 959"] Bolded this part because it is key to me. We are building the aircraft landing gear while we are on final approach. It isn't an ideal situation and I think we have seen the staff over index on the auxiliary stuff without showing the progress externally to fans on the execution aspects of playing the game. I do get confidence listening to CDP and CAT that the guys are working on their craft and remain, ever the optimist, focused on doing my part as a fan and supporter of the Institute. I don't have a major issue with anyone other than the the last group of fans I identify below. The Miserables won't be sated until they get their pound of flesh with firings and I am not convinced we are in a position to upgrade anyone on staff that would make appreciable difference to where we are today.
