I'm a little shocked at the panic. While I'm not overly happy with our start to the year, you've got to keep in mind that nobody had a preseason. You've got the new faces plus the old guys with rust, and they're only sorting things out these first few games. I wouldn't expect teams to look like themselves until 10-15 games into the year, plus on top of the lack of a preseason you need to factor in that teams are usually a bit awkward coming out of the gate in a normal year. The only concerning thing is how short the season is; 15 games is over a quarter of the season. If we can hold to a .500 record while we sort out our issues, I think we'll be okay over the last 3/4 of the year.
