Everyone gave rave reviews to the "La Familia" series. Rightfully so -- it was well done and served its purpose, to entice fans to buy season tickets.
However, there is a double edged sword with these sorts of things. Does it distract certain types of players? Does it create conflict among teammates? I don't know. But what I do know is this team is nothing like last year's team.
And while the youthful OL and DT depth play large roles, there are a lot of other things that should not be happening in Year 4 of the Babers era that are happening -- undisciplined play, blown assignments, demonstrative players on the sidelines when things don't go their way.
Have to wonder the mental state of this group and how the hype played a role in all of this.
