Cal...the sad thing, for me, is I have no confidence in Stan Bowman, being in charge of a rebuild. I feel that he gets far too much credit for a well constructed team that he inherited. He has made poor contract decisions. His trades have mostly been salary dump panic moves. He was allowed to scapegoat a future HOF coach, that he stuck with a badly flawed roster.

I feel that he has been able to skate on his father's reputation, despite his own mistakes.
