I agree with this. It's easy to bame the rider when you're discouraged and I'm guilty of it myself.

But it's hard not to be critical, when you watch these guys totally unprepared or with no game plan at all out there. It's just flat out laziness and if you or I came to work that unprepared everyday we'd be gone within a week.
