What I'm trying to say is that some people seem to be "hedging" their opinions:
They have certain feelings about certain personnel and will not be satisfied until he leaves, and perhaps commits suicide.
However, they choose to instead couch their opinions, saying if "MDA did X, I would feel better about it", MDA does X, and then they say X isn't enough b/c he didn't do Y or Z (which seemingly come out of no where).
It's obvious what is happening here, at least in my eyes: People feel in an extreme about a guy, but don't own it. If you feel that there will be no good achieved until he quits - then OWN it. Don't say "Well it will be better if he does X, it will be much better if he does Y..." because that's bullshit and not being real with your opinion.
I frequently disagree with a poster like abcd, but at least he has stayed consistent in his opinion and doesn't try and fake being more moderate overall...Certain posters feel the way abcd does, but decide to hide it by couching their opinions by making seemingly reasonable demands that will not appease them.
The same thing happened earlier, when MDA made some defensive adjustments and for a time we looked like a team that was just playing a lot better team defense overall - people who previously complained like crazy that MDA didn't adjust were STILL upset when he did adjust b/c he "didn't do it voluntarily" - it's clear to me, and should be clear to you, that there are some people on here fronting like crazy...they want MDA gone at all costs, that's fine. But don't then sit here that you need MDA to do X, Y, and Z when what you are really asking is for him to leave, even if he does X, Y and Z.
