If one thing has been proven beyond any shadow of a doubt it's that Mike Brown does not respond to negative reinforcement from the fan base. We can bust out the Bag Heads and boycott again and again, but it's not going to work. For us to continue down that path trying to enact change is just as bone headed as Mike refusing to hire a GM or fire Marvin. Some people need the stick in order to perform, but others need the carrot.
Mikey had his carrot back when PBS sold out for 57 straight games or whatever it was.
What exactly did he change? Neither the carrot nor the stick work with someone whose stubbornness is legendary.
Mike does what he wants to do regardless of what fans say/do/think. Revenue sharing helps him maintain his stubbornness.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
