but it's fun... and here's why: Raiders seem to me to be accomplishing something that doesn't translate well into empirical evidence... they are getting better, to begin with, and they are 'believing' in themselves... exponentially. That's why I said 'if they keep getting better'. It all could come to a screeching halt, for sure, but I don't think so. They think they're better than they are, and that's going to make them better than they are. - JamesJM
