Nobody did that with Gio.
I think that's where the difference comes, Holic. With hype comes raised expectations, and when raised expectations aren't met, they get more harsh review.

Olympian A is expected to get 7th place out of 15 people. He ends up getting 10th.
Olympian B is expected to get 1st place out of 15 people. He ends up getting 9th.
Who would get more negative comments? Obviously B, people had higher expectations.
I'm one of those that had high expectations for Jeremy. Really, I still do because I think he has that type of talent.
He did struggle last year, but many players have done the same in year 2. Now, if he continues that in year 3 and we don't see any growth/progression from last year...then I'll be pretty critical as well.
