The Good, The Bad and The Interesting: The Season of Hope is Here Edition

Hey, we’re back! After another can’t-make-it-up offseason (as if there’s there any other with the program), we head into the 2015-16 season with muted expectations but tons of hope. Actually, that’s not a bad tagline for this program. It’s a real safe, Scandinavian place to live.

Of course, that’s a slight variation from last year at this time, where we had tons of expectations and lots of hope. But that ended in a train wreck, which we probably should have seen coming. This year, our expectations now morphed into that comfortable, front-porch-on-a-warm-summer-day mentality where we’re just going to take what life gives us.
