I remember suggesting that the team properly rebuild by tearing it down and stop resisting a bottoming out. It pissed off a few people on here who are season ticket holders (me, not being one). There were many who said they would cancel their tickets rather than see a rebuild. Maybe it wasn't a huge sample size given the total number of season ticket holders, most of whom probably don't engage on here, but I did get the sense that it is a popular sentiment.
I can see how this attitude would influence ownership/management decisions, and not always for the best when it comes to building a contender.

Nope, this is incorrect, season ticket holders are generally more concerned about the long term health of the franchise. We have skin in the game.
