If I cared that much about not being disappointed I don't think I could call myself a fan. Read the definition:

Merriam-Webster, the Oxford dictionary and other sources define it as a shortened version of the word fanatic. The word first became popular in reference to baseball enthusiasts. (Fanatic itself, introduced into English around 1550, means "marked by excessive enthusiasm and often intense uncritical devotion". It comes from the Modern Latin fanaticus, meaning "insanely but divinely inspired". The word originally pertained to a temple or sacred place [Latin fanum, poetic English fane]. The modern sense of "extremely zealous" dates from around 1647; the use of fanatic as a noun dates from 1650.)

Also I got it. I'm not a true fan either. Thanks for the helpful info.

FFG is a fan...and a good one. He's also realistic. There is nothing wrong with having no expectation to win this weekend but wanting to be wrong. Lack of blind optimism does not mean you're not a fan or not supportive.

If Josh plays , we win. It's that simple IMHO. It will be high scoring and close.

Honestly I think our defense has much more to do with this outcome than josh. If they show up then it will make things tough for them. If they play like they did last week we have no chance.
