Nope...but a lot of the others worked. There are always a thousand reasons NOT to do something, so the "just asking questions crowd" can go forever, and I understand that its very unlikely I ever change their minds. Where this idea needs support is everyone else that is sick of being one of the least successful post season teams.
All I'm asking is this team set an internal budget $10-$15m under the salary cap, and force themselves to retain more than 7 picks in each draft, unless we're a top 5 team in GF/GA and promote from within. If we're bad because of that strategy our draft capital increases and we get better.
If we ask for that as fans...we can get it.
