Message: [QUOTE="twinight, post: 200946, member: 1555"] Yes, this exactly. People need an emotional safety net. As you said, it's a win/win situation for them. If SU wins they get to enjoy the victory. If SU loses they get to say, "I knew it!" What they don't realize is that the victory is much sweeter when you, as a fan, say to the team "I'm going to put my complete faith in you. Now what are you going to do earn it?" Yes, it's true, there is no safety net with this position. But that's what makes it exciting. If I was an opposing team I would not look at this team's recent performances and think, "Oooh, they look vulnerable." I would think, " me. This team doesn't even lose when they're playing bad."
