re: I owe the Disney's an apology

To be fair, I think it's safe to say that without the drumbeat of dissatisfaction at the outcomes and losses from previous years we wouldn't have seen the changes that have led us to where we are now. If everyone would've adopted an "aw shucks, we'll get them next year" mantra would we have had the AD give in and open up the checkbook to put the current regime in place? Would we have dropped the money we needed for Pruitt, Schotty and the other coaches and assistants we have now? I doubt it.

There were some pretty pissed off folks and it appears they got the message. That's been a plus ... Not a minus.
