There is empirical evidence to prove that things are different now. We have an outstandingly good farm system. Perhaps an historically good system, in fact.
I will believe it when I see it.

Sure that is exactly what Ewing Kaufman did and if he was alive today he would be at the top of spending.

Like I said I am just a casual fan and I understand the importance of a farm system but I heard the same thing coming out of Allard Baird's mouth 10 years ago.
