Why are fans so obsessed about winning Preseason Games?

[Carolinafan320]

JR needs to retire and hand over the team to an owner that knows there arse from a hole in the ground

[John Fox]

oh, I get it. It's the same glass half empty crowd vs. the glass half full crowd. Just in regular season form.

With 46 posters in the huddle chat room going ape poo over a good call I thought this thread would be a good way to transform that discussion from the chat to the board. but obviously those guys are out drowning puppies

you really dont know what you're talking about.

It's not mostly what you're talking about, but more of what you understand

- The fact that Flacco looked like Joe Montana

- The fact that our only TD came from the fact that our 1st team offense was better than their 2nd team

-The fact that the ravens had 6.2 yards per offensive play (7.2 per passing)

- The fact that Gamble got his ass kicked by an old man

- The fact that the Ravens had 35 minutes of possession time

I'd love to have your optimism, but really... its more than winning and losing.

ummm....

no.

this thread was practically dedicated to Mr. Fox's over-reaction in the chat, I'm glad he joined in. Looking forward to reys and the others.

thanks, good post.

but I never identified myself as an optimist. I watched the whole game, with disgust. maybe you saw some of my comments

but even more disgusting are those who focus on referee's calls and insignificant trash time. If you weren't one of them my bad but if you were there you know what I'm talking about.

Last week I had to watch the game with a guy who actually bet $100 on the game.

i was focused on the refs calls, kurbs comments were classic, i was just pissed about the goodson catch one. I just want my team to win, thats all (even if its a worthless preseason game)

just stop

I can understand not being worried about the W or L, but how we played is the concern. If you think that a team can all of a sudden just turn on the switch, you are crazy.
