too many fair weather fans
I don't think it's a matter of fair weather fans at all. I've definitely cut down on my Stanford MBB watching. For me, there's a basic compact between fans and the teams we follow: namely, I'll follow you closely if you are trying to win, not allowing tangential b.s. (say, firing your 3-time NFC championship game appearing coach for petty reasons) to take over your club, etc.
There are people on this board who will disagree, but the continued retention of Dawkins is evidence that winning is not a priority for the club. So I can't bother to care. I'm sure the kids are great, but they ought to be guided by a better coach.
