I voted "Thinks the Team is Better than It Is" because I think that pretty much covers it all.

Yes, they think too much of what Iggy can do. They hope for playoff revenue, even when it's not propable/realistic. They fear losing in the ticket sales because of a poor product, not really being in terms with the fact that the product is already rock bottom.

All those things come down to the same thing; thinking too much of the team.

As to one decision maker, I don't really believe that, at least not before the ROR debacle. After that I think anything is possible.

I do think the way Weisbrod has completely disappeared from the picture is interesting. He seemed a very prominent figure last season. Could it be that he wants to disassociate himself from this season altogether? Propably a smart career move...
