No one thought you were nuts.  Personally, I just thought it said that 
anyone would be "very happy" finishing the season 2-2.  That should have 
been the miminum expectation, and that's not say it wouldn't have been 
disappointing.

How far expectations have fallen in Lincoln is pretty mind-boggling to 
me.  At some point, Callahan needs to be held to a higher standard than 
3-4 loss seasons.
