Cause winning is worth it
And the lose? Not worth it? Like getting upset with your children for something. Are you upset? Sure. Do you stop loving them and supporting them, or realize they’re young and need guidance, support and wisdom.

It’s different than your kids cause you can’t cut or fire your kids to make improvements. You also don’t get fired as my kid for sucking. And when my kids aren’t living up to their potential they don’t get a pass

So you enjoy pain? And then complain about what you wanted in the first place?
Because I am a fan? Really, I don’t understand you. I watch because I am a fan, and I criticize what I perceive as problems also because I am a fan.

When I was a sophomore in high school I lost a wrestling match cause my coach threw in the towel. The kid was a senior and he was better than me, but I also wasn’t wrestling to my potential. My coach was disgusted and ended my match. He did that cause he cared. He would not watch cause he cared too much. That accountability made me so much better. It never happened again. The point was why go out there if you don’t expect to win

At least improvement. None of those things are improvements over last season or even recent seasons. They are become trends that define the team.

The Seahawks just got swept by a sub .500 divisional opponent that they swept last year Again - that's not indicating improvement to me.
Run defense, pass defense? Is it not better. The O-line? There are significant improvements.

Do you not think they expected to win? Every team is talented and can win every week. Including us. We lost by a missed FG.

When as a fan you expect them to lose, as I did as we approached the second half, that’s when it gets difficult to keep being optimistic, I can’t stop watching though no matter how much it turns my stomach
