So there is definitely the possibility of seeing another great. Just cause of the lure of the breeding shed I don't think we should drop our expectations.

Expectations should be changed based on the times. Look at MLB. They change the expectations of pitchers elected to the Hall of Fame. We do not see too many complete games these days. That used to be a criteria and now it isnt. There is always room for movement when it comes to expectations. But it is your list so it is your rules.
