I believe in Pel as well SG, but those suspended players are some of our most seasoned players. It’s starting to look like expectations might be a tad high considering the amount of talent we’ve lost over the last year or so. Or, we might just have gotten a bunch of bad apples. Only time will tell.

Good. I think this will help establish the tone that Pelphrey tried to set last year — but was apparently taken for granted. I believe that the troublemakers will weed themselves out, because if they keep acting out, they won’t play here.

At least, I hope that’s the case.

I’m still a believer in Pelphrey.
