I've seen the writing on the wall for a while now, but last night's loss stings for sure. I don't know, during the game it just became more clearer than ever that this group is likely not going to be able to hold on to one of these last two spots. They're basically hanging by a thread right now.
I don't think Lou should sell off pieces, however, if a team comes along with a really attractive offer that helps us maybe next year or in the not to distant future, **** it, he should definitely go for it. At this point they can't possibly get any worse results than they have. If they win 3 games the rest of the way, they'll only be slightly under the current pace, which is downright abysmal.
I'd like to see Lou just stay the course and ride this out, unless above becomes a possibility. There are only 3 weeks to go and even if they somehow clawed their way into the top 8 when all is said and done, this group has another week tops after that. I just think it would be really foolish to invest any more picks or assets into this team as it stands now. They're just not playing well and haven't been for a long time.
I don't know about any of you, but I just really can't wait for this season to be over with. For me, it's like there is this permanent stain on this season that can never be wiped off. It's like any good vibes that were created from last year's run were totally **** on. First Parise bolts and then the league decides that they don't want to play for 4 months. Now for the last 10 weeks, we've watched an aging team suffer injury upon injury and top players come up short time and time again. It's ****ing depressing. There is nothing enjoyable about this at all right now and I'm just really looking forward to closing the book on this year. It's been a tremendous letdown from last season? Bobby Butler wearing #9 this season. Give me a ****ing break. It's like a cruel joke.
