Actually, this board has picked up quite a bit since they've followed my lead in being cynical about the NBA and pro athletes in particular! Dutch is certainly on board! And a host of others!!!

Now that was funny. I was thinking something along those same lines ... Wonder what he is touching on those dogs, or maybe dog is a euphemism for something else.

The Jazz are just going through some growing pains right now, and it's getting tense now that the playoffs are at risk, and we all expected this season to be better than it was, and I dunno.

Honestly, you can't take any fan too seriously. By definition, a fan is a fanatic. They're going to go to extremes based on how they perceive their team is doing. One person can be fine with how they're doing, while another can go completely ballistic. lol
I think it's funny because I used to be the same way. I even used to run my own website dedicated to the Jazz. I covered every single game and did a commentary on how they did. Needless to say, after those long Finals seasons, I got a bit burned out. I've ever since, tamed my interest more and more every year. Now, I'm to the point where I record every game but only watch the games they win or if a particular player or two has a nice game. It's definitely made my life a lot less crazy.
Of course, it's always fun to follow the strategy side of building a team. Whenever they do trades or there's rumors of trades, the draft, etc, I still followed that pretty closely.
Right now, there is going to be a lot more complaining because fans are frustrated with this team. They see the stretches of greatness from certain combos of players, but for various reasons, they can't seem to keep it going consistently. Just roll with it. It'll get better after the frustration levels out.

Great point. Although, it's getting to that point to where all the injuries and weird decisions are maybe showing that this team isn't ready to go deep in the playoffs. Making the playoffs is a good thing, but I can see why people are starting to wonder if maybe not making the playoffs and getting a better draft pick would be better.
Hayward is not the prophet, he is the God. O, all praise Hayward!
