Somebody please try to convince me that the FO has a plan.

I love the Caps, but really would Redskins fans put up with the teams being absolutely abysmal for several years the way the Caps were before now finally being legit contenders? Probably not, because most people don't care as much about the Caps, and don't realize how awful the team was for a while (overpaid veterans, no depth, etc.) .I'd wager that 4 out of every 5 people think they hired McPhee last year and this was a quick turnaround.

I think there are many people that have decided to gloss over any good moves by VC and only acknowledge them as "dumb luck" and are determined to never give Cerrato any credit no matter what. The thought that a team built by Cerrato could win really bothers them. They'd almost rather they didn't win.
