[QUOTE="sschind, post: 749456, member: 10247"] I'm not sure what you mean by this but I do kind of get what you are saying. In my younger days I used to think "real" fans would never root for a loss but if losing is the only way they honestly think the changes they think are needed will come is that being disloyal? In the end all they want is for the team to improve and long term success (building a solid team across the roster instead of a one man deep roster for example) has far more appeal than a "meaningless" win here or there. Especially when a few more of those wins means it is less likely the changes they feel are needed will be made. If someone feels a top 5 draft pick would be so much better than a 10-15 pick in the long term success of the team I can see why they would prefer 2 or 3 more losses on the the season. I don't agree but that's just my opinion and I am not about to tell someone their opinion is not as valid as mine. In a way, to me anyways, wins are like cash. Your team wins and its cash in your pocket that you spend and have the enjoyment of having your team get a victory today but it will be gone if you do and that is all you get from it. Losses, which lead to higher draft picks or regime changes are like investments that may or may not pay off. So do you take the cash (the win) or do you invest (the loss) in the future? That sounded so much more profound in my mind. This whole post is kind of convoluted but I can't think of a better way to say it (I tried believe me) hopefully I got my point across. [/QUOTE]
