Have ya'll gotten used to losing yet? It used to really bother me but now I have grown to almost expect it. I have razorback apathy I guess.

I have reached that awesome place where I turn off the TV and move on in life. I enjoy the game, but the last 4 or 5 years has caused me to cut emotional ties to the program. I always hope we win, but I never expect us to.

you must be new to being a razorback fan.


I never get used to losing. At anything. Which is why I get so damn worked up over losing a game even though I know we "were supposed to lose" "excuse excuse excuse". Whatever in the frick that means. Lots of people on here understand that concept. I am not one of them and never will be. Still a fan and always will be, though.

Definitely not new. Just not emotionally invested like I used to be. Maybe I am getting more calm as I age haha

I've been a Hog fan for going on 30 yrs. Outside of the early/mid 90's with Nolan, the few good years with Nutt, and the Petrino BCS year, I have learned what to expect.

I haven't, and probably won't get used to losing when we have a team that has the fight like this team does. I don't take losing like a few here (and most on HiV) do though. I don't get angry and think we should start firing people, or start bashing BA, or make post after post complaining/whining about CBB. I get upset when we lose because I can always see how badly the players wanted it and fought for it, and then you have our shitty fans sitting on their couches behind a screen acting like they worked harder in this game and leading up to it than the players did and they wanted it worse. These people that act like this after games are always the ones that never played one quarter, inning, period, half, etc. of a sport they truly loved.

Hell no. I hate losing. I still think we'll win a few more games but I'm not willing to let that keep me from getting pissed when we lose.

I'm not on any mountain top, you're just so damn down on everything you're looking up at everyone else here. I think you're enjoying all the attention you're getting for being the (said in the most emo voice possible) "everyone else is sheeple, I'm different, and I tell it like it is" guy.

You STILL haven't gathered the fact that I'm simply calling out issues and NOT calling for his head? Truly, you are a special one.

Ahhh yes, the sidewalk fan argument appears again. So individuals who never played the game and are critical of the way a game is played are shitty fans? Got it. It's only those who played the game and have nice things to say whose opinions have any validity.

Also, attacking the messengers in the argument seldom gets you anywhere; refuting the message is much more effective.

yes. I don't know how someone could've made it through the past few years not being used to it.
