I limited my list to five since, really, who wants to dwell on the negative? Perhaps I might have taken some kind of masochistic pleasure in wallowing in failure a few years ago as an opportunity to snark at what appeared to be a never-ending pattern of stupidity. However, now such an article would make me look like a bitter critic that can never be happy.
That being said, I still think it’s worthwhile to look back at the failures from the past. At this point, I think it will help keep us humble in case the 2016 season falls short of the recent past.
