I'd much rather see us build a quality team that year over year is in the conversation for league leaders (i.e., Chicago, Pittsburgh, Washington, etc.) than I would see us mortgage the future in order to have one or two years of deep runs before needing to rebuild again.
Maybe the league has changed and this isn't a reality anymore, but that's certainly the dream.

Well that's just silly. How can a fan of a team not care if they are eventually the champs?
