A scorched earth policy like the dummies up North is not a good or feasible way to rebuild, despite what many pundits would have us believe.

Easily made the play-offs is a huge leap and making it as a 7/8 seed and losing in 4 games certainly shouldn't have made Feaster look like a genius but the way people overrate the crap job he has done you may be right and many would have talked about him like that.
When we missed the play-offs for a majority of the time under Richards deal and been unable to sign guys to help the team because of the ridiculous overpayment it was I am not sure how much of a genius Feaster would have looked like even with the rose colored glasses of many Flames homers.
