We can all have our viewpoints and mine is as valid as yours. In football, I am a 49ers fan. Right now they are a doormat of the league and have been for 10 years. But I will always be satisfied having been a fan due to the glory years of Walsh and Montana and Young and Rice. It is great to have your team win it all. Why should a Jazz fan be satisfied with less? And don't give me small market bs.
I don't remember saying that you couldn't have your viewpoint.
Ok, I'll play along. I am a big BYU fan. I even went to school there. I lived through the 1984 national championship and saw every game. You may not believe this, but after BYU won their first game that year, I told my friend "We could win the National Championship!" He said I was crazy.
It was fantastic. So I know it is great to have your team win it all. But it didn't change my life. I didn't do anything to help the team win. I watched and rooted and enjoyed every game.
Then I had my real life to deal with.
In the many years that have followed, I don't need that 84 championship to fall back on. I enjoy each BYU team for what it is. Each year is great in its own way (except for the last Crowton year). Even this year, I enjoyed getting to see the team come back from being so miserable and improving and playing some great football. There was no championship. BYU even choked it against Utah. But as the season ended, I can say that I enjoyed this year quite a lot. I am also excited for the future...VERY excited.
I don't sit here and say, "I am satisfied that we won the championship in 84, therefore, my being a BYU fan is valid" or whatever.
As for the Jazz right now. THEY CANNOT WIN A CHAMPIONSHIP RIGHT NOW, because that cannot happen until JUNE. The only thing they can do is win as many games as possible right now and keep striving to improve. They are doing that. I am enjoying it. It's too bad that some of you can only mitch and boan about it, but if you want to be a crying pessimist, go ahead, but I am gonna make fun of you for it.
