yeah thats the issue basically ... many people have just become accustomed to being lower tier middle of the pack
me, personally, not interested in that and never will be.
IF your expectations are low...I can totally see just wanting everyone to be quiet and cheer
I had high expectations for this season...theres 4 and 5 star talent throughout the roster. I can confidently say that the Orange has had more talent than at least 3/4 of the teams they have played this season. (and I also think that there hasnt been a team they have played that they couldnt beat, at least in theory, given the relative levels of talent...execution has been poor...but that doesnt mean the gap is so large that the teams that beat them were unbeatable)
so we are just different.
you and the group that youre in - are realists and just happy no matter what happens...and thats totally fine.
me...I remember the good years and thats my standard, so Im not going to grade the team on a curve.
