I have to agree with you. The same one's criticizing the new members are the one's trying to fill leagues. The reality is you learn by trying, and in any league with 32 teams there are going to be some bottom dwellers. Learning and digging your way out of a hole is what managing a franchise is all about. Relax with the criticism fellas, major turnoff.
In my case, the criticism is welcome. If everyone had stayed silent, I'd never have known that I had horrified so many . . . and been further behind the learning curve. I will certainly be taking a hard look at my MFN-31 performance over the next few seasons. I don't expect to have mwd's record . . . but it's a good chance to evaluate my rationale.
