Why Pessimism?

Saint Cy of JFC · Feb 26, 2020

Just curious why some fans choose to be so pessimistic about their favorite sports team.

Is it just a personality traits where you are naturally negative about anything the moment something goes wrong or face adversity?

Why do the Shads of the world exist? Or why do they choose to follow a sports team so closely when it seems to bring them no joy. Lately it seems like everyone is going Shad.

Being down by 40 at the half which the Jazz were in a game this year doesn't exactly bring out warm feelings.

And to clarify, I have no issue with people being negative or having issues with how things are being run. Just sometimes it goes to an extreme level I don't understand.

What's our record been since the Dallas win a month ago?

there are some who are pessimistic and some who calls em how they sees em… so will go back and forth... not sure that pessimistic. If you are expecting fans to be grounded... you probably have unrealistic expectations.

Not sure. Explain your contrarian idiocy and then I’ll try to take a stab at your question.

What does winning 19 of 21 do?

We are so warm and fuzzy, it's obscene.

Well as long as we are obscene.

This is the ultimate jinx thread. Doomed us to 10 more losses. Thanks a lot dickhead.

Because this team is talented enough to contend but they have totally given up. Something has gone terribly wrong in the locker room. Guys aren't even trying Cy. They don't care.

We’re unwatchable Against Boston on our own floor. What’s there to be optimistic about?

Great thread. What in the world do we possibly have to be pessimistic about?

My back hurts alot.
Took my daughter to the park and hung upside down from some of the money bars or whatever. Helped a bit but it still hurts.
I want to get back to the gym but don't want to make my back worse

That sucks. Are you able to get some sleep?. Heal your back before trying to lift stuff.

Jingled · Feb 26, 2020

This is the most disappointing season I can remember. The expectations were just so damn high. Everyone thought this was the best roster we'd had since the Stockton/Malone finals teams and thought we were actually going to be contenders this year. What a huge letdown.

MilesDeep · Feb 26, 2020

As bad as this is, and it's bad, I still think the Jazz will be better in the playoffs, if they get there, than they were last year. In the playoffs you need shot creators and Utah has 2.1 instead of just 1. Adding JC adds one and Conley occasionally can create so he gets a .1. If Don and JC play well the same game or for a whole series, Utah just might win. But OUCH is the word atm.

Thanks for the mention. I didn't even bother to check this thread until now to find it was entirely dedicated to me. Much appreciated
