Both have their ardent supporters and detractors. Me, I have no faith either will lead us to a SB, let alone win one. But, there's no room for pragmatism with the starry-eyed homers in JN, so I stay out of the bickering for the most part. We know Marvin has a job until he brings a shotgun to work, and Andy won't be benched short of an act of congress. So, we endure. That's your answer.

^^^ That's not only hilarious, its the best post of this thread. I appreciate your honesty. That division in fans goes on, I think more solid in the modern era than ever. Our coach is so new, decimated with injuries last year (we had the second most in the league), but some fans will not cut him any slack. They may be right, but you have to give him time.
Yours is different, and I feel for you guys. What the hell do you do ? He's had the time, and the guy wins in the regular season. In this league of parity, that's pretty darn good. Postseason ? Sometimes its just cursed.
