The polarization that happens here is just maddening sometimes.

I feel like the 'haters' ARE operating in the middle ground right now.
"We shouldn't have expected him to contribute" was the growing consensus and when Toney blows that thing to hell, there's just some other excuse.
Meanwhile myself and Detox, who have been the most vocal detractors of the pick, continue to say "hey, there's a path to productivity here even if it's going to be a longer time coming than we would like and it won't have the ceiling many hoped for". That IS the middle ground.
It's a wide enough runway to land a 747 on, frankly. It's so damn nebulous as to mean very little - I don't even like where I find myself here because I feel like I'm mostly stating truisms that are largely devoid of genuine insight.
And yet I 'hate' the guy according to many....
Huh?
