Coltscap.net is a great site. The author called into the Bill Polian Show last night and this is what he he has to say.
The only other logical outcome is that Polian is flat out lying; either about the consecutive regular season win-streak mattering or about individual milestones not trumping team achievement.
There’s no competitive advantage to keeping secret why individual records trump the pursuit of team achievement. If you’re truly afraid of injury, show it consistently. If you feel that a consecutive regular win streak or the most wins in a decade is important, then pursue it continually. But saying those achievements, both team and individual, are important while only pursuing one makes you either an idiot or a liar.
I fail to believe that Polian is an idiot.
That’s more disappointing to me than anything that happened Sunday. If there was a good reason for the team’s actions on Saturday, say so and stick to it proudly, like has been admirably done in the past.
Just don’t piss on my leg and tell me it’s raining.
