That's easy. It's called a conditioned human response (on a massive scale) resulting from an operant called negative reinforcement, i.e., removal of an aversive stimuli (that's Hootie) in order to facilitate a desired response, i.e., renewed belief that we can be better than our previously confined and restrained, Hootie-defined potential. It puts us in a state of renewed spirit, hope, and joy...kind of like one would feel after getting out of prison and getting rid of the ball and chain one carried around the whole time they were there.
So you're saying BP isn't all that great. That your love for him is just because he is different?

I can relate to the fact that you're confused. I was too when we had Hootie. No, I'm saying Hootie was a "ball-and-chain" for us.

Most of us believe BP is a better coach and having had the Hootie experience makes us appreciate BP even more.
Picture this: Being without Nutt makes me think of maybe being really constipated for several years and then making yourself take a great big, lovely dump... Wouldn't it make everything that's good in the world seem that much better? ...and if or when you peel an eye back at it...even as beautiful as it felt leaving, you see it from a new perspective, finding renewed happiness and delight as you step away from it...with a brand new outlook and stride.
