It is what it is. I’ve been an Apathetic fan of my Alma Mater all my life . After winning our first conference championship in football in 50 years we called it “ Miracle on the Brazos”.Apathy is real and it can be depressing... I like your description of the Jones - hillbilly brass.. pretty good. I call them Huey and Dewey... same thing, I guess...
Having said that - there are some good things going on... McClay is a draft master who seems to deliver, overall, good results. In turn, players are decent, in spite of the hillbilly's incompetence in 2 out of 3 channels for player aquisition.
It’s didn’t prevent me from being a Diehard fan continuing to attend games and supporting the team. It’s just a different mentality you take .
Some fans become so distraught they walk away , become casual or fair weather fans only coming out when we’re having a little more success. My Buddy calls them T-Shirt fans . Lol
Like fans who hop on teams where they didn’t go to school , perhaps a loved one from their family, etc or not from their home TV viewing area. What I often called local or regional.
After almost 3 decades and the frustrating dysfunctional ownership I’ve become apathetic with my beloved Cowboys as well. But they’re my local team and it’s in my blood to continue rooting for them. But I’ll certainly roast them for what this franchise has become.
