My take is that there is a huge difference between hoping and believing.
Every year, I hope this team does well, makes the playoffs, and wins the SB, because I am a fan.
What do I believe about this team this year? I believe, even if all this talent pans out, even if there are no major lengthy injuries, based upon the history, under MB's reign, this team will shoot itself in the foot, be it management, coaches, players, or all of the above, like it has, every year, for the last 26 years. Anything beyond that is hope or wishful thinking!!
