My rant was mostly directed at one particular “fan” here. Don’t worry, I get it that the only fans who didn’t complain were Celtics fans in the 60’s and maybe UCLA bruins basketball fans under Wooden, and even then, I’m sure there were fans who thought they knew better.  But I have little patience for fans who go into hysterionics when their team has a rough patch.

I barely remember the end of Willie Mays' career, but I'd been a fan since 1971.  Went to my first game in 1973. The Giants won the pennant two weeks before I was born in 1962, then didn't win another for 27 years. Which was my favorite line coming from a non-hall of fame announcer: "And 27 years of waiting have come to an end..."  Good times or bad, I'll always be a Giants fan and a Stanford fan.
