put this in another thread, but this might be a good location....
Mario's tenure, so I found an interesting stat I couldn't look for anywhere else, so I reproduced it. After Mario's first season here, he hasn't got blown out since. Since that point, he has ONLY had 2 double digit losses, and that was 10 and 14 points. That's kind of an outstanding point, in that every loss since his first season has been tight. That first season was rough, but progress has been made every year and we are not a laughing stock with losses since 22
