JA himself (CLM's boss) said recently that they define success as "being in the hunt" every year.

Unfortunately, for us that don't live in La La Land and expect better production from a +$4M a year salary, we are way out of line with the guy who makes the decisions and seems to be fine with just being "close."

I'm sure that attitude would change as revenue drops off, but only the fans can speak with their money. That is the only thing you can do about it.

I decided to not go to Dallas nor any other games anymore. If we all did that, changes would be made but it won't happen

Being in the hunt is all you can ask for.

shite, Alabama has only been "in the hunt" over the last two years... They've relied on other teams' misfortune to get in the title game.

You can't expect perfection every year.

Douboy- that fan money worked to get rid of Smokes azz. The fans can speak volumes to get rid of Miles azz.

IT'S NOT ABOUT WINNING CHAMPIONSHIPS.

Expectations are absolutely out of line. Too many fans lose sight of the role that intangibles play in the game. The odds of getting all 11 players on the field to execute flawlessly every play or even most plays is obscene. That's why teams strive to be in the hunt every year. With a high level of success, any team can ride intangibles to a championship. But it is a rare occurrence for any team to repeat that level of success.

If any of you rantards knew what the frick y'all are talking about to the extent that you pretend to, our Pickems page would look far more impressive than the modest percentages of success which actually show up. Anyone notice that no one repeats on Pickems? How successful are the most successful armchair rantards? If they won college games at the rate their "knowledge" results in picking who wins, they would still be outmatched by Les Miles.
