Plus it was my first go around at pure suck. I missed the pre-Marty days so I was painfully unaware of how awful that level of suck felt.
Yes, technically Pioli was worse. I guess. It’s like AIDS is worse than gonorrhea. Pioli was worse but I was numb to it. Herm did the damage. By the time Pioli came around I was checked out. At least in terms of thinking the franchise wasn’t snakebit.

I get that perspective. However, fat Scott cut off and alienated a fan base that views its team as a vital part of the community. Remember all the player’s charity posters lining the wall of the stands around the field that went away during that time? The connection with the team was taken away. That’s why that ****er is worse than Herm.
