I get a little tired of folks on here saying we are the worst fan base. Have y'all ever lived outside of Texas?
I currently live near DC, and they are the biggest crybabies fans I have seen in all the place I have lived. There's always an excuse why they lost, it's never their fault. About 20 years ago, after another one of their 3-13 seasons the Washington Post had an article front page of the sports section that if they changed 3 play in every game they would have been 13-3. I suppose the a potential 42 point change could make a difference.
We also have the most fans, thus giving us more opportunities to have fair-weather or arrogant fans.
As far as scared? Maybe 30 years ago when I smoked 2 packs during a game, changed seats/shirts if they weren't played well, broke remotes, etc. Age and real live problems put football back in perspective. It's entertainment. And I sleep like a baby win or lose. Of course I'm drugged up to the gills, but that's a different story.
