I understand his point about 40 years of futility, although I seem to recall SBs in 85, 96, even if they weren't victories.
But in today's story cycle, that's as revelant as relating, say, The Killers laboring in obscurity for 5 or so years until they hit it big, when every radio station has had them in heavy rotation for the past several months/years.
People get tired of the overdog, they just do.
