The real reason is complacency. When an organization like ours leans on the side of loyalty instead of running it like a business, there is less accountability. Therefore, less fear of poor performance and decisions from everyone in the organization down to the mascot.

If this was true, the organization would not have the solid record they have over the last 10 years... they would be in the basement like the Browns over the last 10 years..
