did I come across as offended?You seem more emotionally invested in it than he does, to be honest. I mean, you honed in on the one extremely mildly negative thing he said and appear pretty offended by it.
Actually, the most negative thing he said was a 7-9 finish, which is the worst case scenario of continued perpetual mediocrity, but some have been okay with that for years now, so probably not as much of a negative to them.
Hey, if the only draft negative is taking a FB in the 7th round, I call that a win!
