Why can't people accept that Spartans fked this diplo up thinking they have outsmart their opponents but have actually only outsmarted themselves. Those examples from the past doesn't mean they can't make wrong decisions now. So before going on further, can we consider that they made a mistake this time and are being punished for it. 50 pages of it and people are still trying to say how Spartans have been good last time. If your grandma was an olympic medalist in her youth, is she gonna outrun usain bolt now? geez
