Make no mistake... I don't think Linehan is a good coach, and I doubt he'll still be around in 2009. But, if he proves me wrong, that will mean that the Rams are having a good year, so I'll be happy about that.
I understand, and I was going to give room for losses due to the schedule. The manifesto can give guidelines for the others to follow. I want SLOP to be credible, but I also want SLOP to stay true to our original opinions about Linehan, and above all, I want the Rams to have a good season.

Thanks for explaining your reasoning.
