No. This league is about winning, and winning right F'ing now. We've had 10 years under this regime. They're good at building mediocrity. They're good at developing teams to win 6 to 9 games a year -- maybe 10 games if everything falls right into place.

The league is designed to make winners out of anybody, and for anybody to do it in relatively short fashion.

If you can't get it done in ten years with the same people running the show, it's not going to get done.

But we haven't necessarily had the same people running the show
