This is a team that had no staying power in terms of cup contention, either before or after their cup win.

They are the prime example of a lucky cup run. Which is great, good for them. But it's not exactly a sustainable plan to build your franchise around.

How many times do teams like that actually win? Once every 50 years?

Gee what a model. Shooting low and hoping for a wild lucky ricochet to hit the target.

what exactly is your plan? you want a dynasty or this organization sucks? like one cup isnt good enough for you?

Why in Christ's name would you voluntarily negotiate yourself downward from "dynasty"? Yes, that's what we should be shooting for, it's what every team should be shooting for. If they aim for that, and miss, then at least maybe they'll win the goddamned Cup once before I die. If they aim for "let's maybe be good enough once," and miss, then we don't even get that.
