You believe (take it) that it is true (granted) that this will NOT be our last chance to win a championship with this team.
And people who believe like that will not have the sense of urgency to win it all this year. They don't appreciate the fact that this could be our last chance in a while. They are taking it for granted that we will have just as good of a chance to win next year or the year after.
How is it taking it for granted when we have all the main pieces to our team under contract and can only build through the draft and free agency?
You're arguing just to avoid being wrong now and it's not working out too well for you.
Like I said, successful teams, businesses, people, and just about anything else successful always look to the future so while succeeding in the present so that they can sustain success.
