[QUOTE="FredJacket, post: 1078750, member: 2843"] Fans come in all forms. This dialogue which always bubbles up after losses to UGA and once we are eliminated from the post-season; and really highlights the contrast between how I 'fan' and how those different from me do it. I care about the process. I care about the journey. I enjoy each win. In baseball, you can watch 1 million games... no 2 are the same. There is always something you see... you've never seen before. I joyfully credit the players and staff for stringing together seasons winning over 65% of their games year after year (literally); and making it into the post-season on the regular. I concede the post-season record under Hall has been disappointing relative to 'some' of their potential leading into those post-seasons. I simply cannot/will not allow those disappointing 'finishes' ... diminish how much I appreciate the accomplishments of the staff and team over the years. Ga Tech baseball is an excellent 'product' ... something all involved should be proud of. The 'different' fans... there is plenty of room for them too... whose main (only?) metric is getting to the CWS or winning a national championship or beating UGA... have every right to put a premium on those things. I feel for you. Based on that criteria and operating conditions... your joy quotient is suffering. Go JACKETS!! [/QUOTE]
