I'll leave it at that. I keep writing/deleting paragraph after paragraph, but can't seem to explain my thoughts on this.

Ahhh... I see the problem...
They ARE smarter than us. There is NO way that a lifetime in the game makes them less so than us armchair GMs and Coaches... but many of us have this belief that "we understand the x" better than them, whether 'x' be the players, the strategy, the dressing room, etc.
Lots of people here talk quite intelligently, and much of the time with lots of great opinions (others not so much), but we shouldn't ever really think we ARE smarter. If we were, we would be the ones with the million dollar jobs.
