Wins Poll

There's a poll up at the Trib-Review site. I laugh to see "85 wins or more" as the most optimistic option, and only 11% choosing that option. The front office has done a good job of managing expectations, and this bodes well for positive free media and fan growth down the line. If the Pirates don't win, no one will notice, and there's no news to report. If they start winning, and they will start winning again at some point, then everyone will be surprised, there will be a lot of news to report and follow, and there will be a surge in ticket sales and national interest.

I voted 85 wins or more.
