Message: [QUOTE="UCfor3, post: 4190565, member: 567"] The narrative that if you don't throw a hissy fit on a message board every time we lose means people don't care as much if we are ever great again is so outrageous it's hysterical. Besides the fact it has zero bearing on future results, perhaps some people just have better control of their emotions and don't feel the need or find it productive to meltdown after every minor setback. With sports often the journey is sometimes a roller coaster and you have to find the joy in it even if it breaks your heart at times. Only being happy when your favorite team is dominating and competing for championships is a recipe for being unhappy more often than not. It's not something you can control so the "accepting" mediocrity arguments are ridiculous. Ok, I don't accept it. Now what do I do? Express every negative thought about the program I love on a message board? That's been done to death and doesn't seem to be working. We are all disappointed that the process to be legit contenders again has been a slower ascent than we hoped. Some of just try and offer a sliver of support for whatever that's worth. Or we cool off and process the disappointment before blitzing the board with every primal thought. I would be banned in 100 countries if the words that came out of my mouth during games were transcribed on this message board. [/QUOTE]
