I think this is the only place on the internet, Rockets fans or not, that the vast majority appears to be willing to make every excuse in the world for the team.
Last night's loss was awful. In my opinion, it will cost them the series. I've stood up for the team through thick and thin all year. After last night, I can't see us winning game 6 and certainly can't see us winning game 7.
You're probably right. That's because this board is comprised of mostly Aggies, so the common denominator is a lot higher than other sites. When that is the case, the caliber of people are higher than average Joe fan and the the conversations you're going to have are going to be more similar to a former student event or at Muster than what you have waiting in line at the DMV.
One thing common among most Aggies is loyalty, and I don't think you just turn that off when things don't go well. For most of us, that's a part of who we are. It was a bad finish and I think everyone acknowledges that. We are all disappointed, but that doesn't mean we are going to turn on and pile on the guys that got us here.
You have definitely not stood up for the team through thick and thin. You turn on guys in record time. Other than James Ennis. Somehow your next-level analysis kept telling you he was an undercover superstar. I just wish you would show the same loyalty to best Rocket ever that you do to replacement level role players.
I'm sure you'll whip out the annotating oil in record time...and turn on him again if we don't win a ring. Why don't you do us all a favor and go to those other places on the internet where like-minded people are posting like-minded trash...but please stay there and walk it back with them when the tides turn.
