Mullet Man, you have hit the nail on the head! But for the fans to take credit for the OVERHYPE...LOL...you definitely were steered in that direction, so it wasn't without instigation...
And once it was past the "breakup conversations" with the media, the hype also found it's way there as well.
i'm optimistic as well, just think i won't be holding my breath...no matter what tho, i do wish AB whatever sucess they are due.
