are you the eternal optimist or the eventual pessimist?
I'm always the optimist-my team is never out of it.

I, the starter of this thread, am also a seahawks fan. Yea..it all makes sense now. I was just wondering if other fans were like us. We have been beaten down time and again and, quite honestly, I come to expect my team to blow a big lead....so much so that I probably wouldn't even enjoy it if they didn't.


lol, I'd probably go into shock and need to be rushed to ER.

I'm a little of both, but when you live in choke capital, usa ( minnesota) it's hard to get opptimistic. I mean, Minnesota teams are just prone to choking. The Vikes, the gophers football team, the T-wolves, the twins. It's just a fact of life.

Minnesota is the choke capital during the regular season.... The playoffs is where Cleveland is captured in all of its choking glory.

To be fair, the Vikes can choke in the regular, and post season.

With the baseball season around the corner I'm pessimistic, the A's don't have the pitching to get it done.
