I don't think anyone should be concerned with how someone else expects a prospect to develop. If you think I'm setting myself up for major disappointment, so be it, you shouldn't concern yourself with my steep descent into depression. I made a conscious decision to heavily invest into a prospect on my team and understood the risk factor in doing that, every prospect has a chance to bust, I just prefer to be excited simply because what Johnny is doing right now is truly exciting and I don't want to rob myself of that or numb myself to his success simply to reduce the pain if (and that is a big if, considering what he is doing) he ends up faltering.
Also, considering how many prospects the flames fanbase has put on to a pedestal only to see that same pedestal hit directly with a nuclear weapon, I'm pretty sure we can take a little disappointment.
