Is this still the team motto? I would be surprised that they would stick with the former coach's mantra.


In any event, I have maintained that fans tend to over read and misinterpret what "always earned; never given" means on a team with a mix of rookies, veterans, players on one-way and two-way contracts, pending RFAs and UFAs.

We only know the motto. We are not privy to how it was applied.
