Message: [QUOTE="microfich, post: 2555668, member: 1029"] Realize that half the teams in the country have losing records and most of them do it 3/4 of the time. Those programs are used to losing and get excited the one year out of four they have upper classmen that can lead them toward the tournament. This keeps their fans with low expectations satisfied enough to live on hope and faith. We are not used to this. Even pre JC we were a winning New England program that would fight with UMass or URI for the championship every year. This success and rabid fandom helped lead us to the Big East, where we foundered for years pre JC but never lost the fanaticism. It doesn’t take much for a few to topple norms causing people like me to fear, doubt and loathe. Guiltless apathy of a deep love is a crying shame. [/QUOTE]
