Gen X era gave a chance to a lot of players that wouldn't. For a moment a lot of those players got to live out their dream and they worked their ass off for coaches that shouldn't be coaches.I feel like we romanticize the gen X era way too much. Make no mistake, that era sucked ass. Getting blown out every night, the anxiety of almost leaving town. We only look fondly on it because what it ultimately led to.
Now we get to see players that deserve a shot get shit all over, fans bitch about the players being the problem and are wrong, the players play like they don't believe in the coach.
