A couple points - some fans might have known and acknowledged that, but ownership, King and Feaster certainly did not.
There are some (myself included) that wanted this team blown up two trade deadlines ago when it was pretty clear that these guys were not going to get any better or were simply "one or two" pieces away. We're heading right into #3 and management has given the fans no indication they will make the correct decisions.
You may ask for patience, but I ask for trust. Until we hear a different tune from management than "we aren't selling" or tossing out offer sheets, it is really hard to trust them and be patient. They need to start by coming clean.
