And what's that? That fans that experience winning tend to expect more than fans that don't?

That's science, TBird. I bet I could find you an abstract if I looked hard enough. Which I won't

Ah, nice argument re-frame

You said "You'd melt more during the season too if you'd seen aTm win a championship recently. It's just the nature of things."

You were referring to the amount of melting, NOT the expectations. Of course fans that experience winning more tend to expect more. THAT is the true nature of things.

What is NOT a constant is how said fans react to adversity (commonly referred to as "melting" on this domain). I provided an example to the contrary of yours in Spurs fans, who are crazy by any metric, but not only were so before the titles, but also tend to absorb difficulties as a whole with less consternation than lsufan.

You then retort with some opinionated poppycock about Southern collegiate fans vs. all other fans, then try to reframe the argument, as outlined above.

Like I said, your thought process is a piece of work
