It is completely acceptable to be frustrated at your team if you see the owners doing minimal to make them better. Like your team, that is fine. But bro, be honest about them. You're in denial about a lot of this stuff and painfully indignant.
You're a nice guy and I get people enjoy trolling you and getting a rise out of you. But you do it to yourself with such a narrow minded view. It's OK to say your teams are terrible. That doesn't make you less of a fan or mean you have to stop supporting them. It's being realistic.
That is the biggest reason I can't do the Bears. The fans claim every year is their year over and over and over and over. Stockholm syndrome. To think people said "we're going Super Bowl" with Justin Fields as QB, or Trubisky is comical. And back in 2017 I'm sure you were here defending them. You lose credibility when you refuse to see the weaknesses in your teams.
I like the Packers. I think they are going to have a rough year. They have a hard schedule. Love is a question mark after last season. And I don't know what to expect out of our receivers. Hoping the rookies pan out but we don't know and the guys being brought back led the league in drops last year. Does this mean I'm a terrible Packers fan? No. It means I support my team but have realistic expectations.
