I think the 2014 to 2016 era was different because we were rebuilding/retooling, fans can get behind a strategy and drafting good young prospects in the top 10 is the reward for all the suck. The late nineties early 2000's was a fan base pissed off that there was no plan, just make the playoffs and could not even attract UFA's, that is a poor recipe for fan engagement.
Our recent rebuild failed that happens and maybe there is some lessons there for the new management to avoid, lets have a plan and try it again, we know the other strategy doesn't work either.
I'm fully behind a full rebuild, gotta suck for awhile, that's normal.
