Nah, it was more to point out how miserable people can be in the face of success, or maybe I should say in spite of it. We dominated our last 2 opponents and we can debate their abilities, but people still find something to be unhappy about and it usually has almost nothing to do with the end result, or even the game. They are yeah, buts.
*me - "Did you see the Gopher game? We really dominated."
*curmudgeonly fellow - "Yeah, but Fleck keeps talking about this being year zero. I don't agree with that one bit."
*me - "That has nothing to do with the game."
*curmudgeonly fellow - "Yeah, but his rah, rah attitude just rubs me the wrong way."
*me - "So, you just do not like his personality, correct?"
*curmudgeonly fellow - "Yeah, but I support the coach and the program."
*me - "Sure sounds like you do. I mean, you totally get into the fact that the last 2 games were convincing victories, right."
*curmudgeonly fellow - "Yeah, but he sounds too much like Brewster."
*me - "Got it."
