Being a fan of any sports team can be simultaneously exultant and despairing.
There’s the highest of highs when your favorite team wins the championship: the effort, work, sweat, and tears culminating in being crowned the winner of all for the team, and the countless hours spent analyzing, critiquing, celebrating, and losing sleep as they followed the ride for the fans.
Then there’s the lowest of lows. Those moments when the talent, chemistry, game plan, trades, and drafting don’t come together to win. When the franchise enters a rebuild and the fans are asked to be patient as they work to get back to the pinnacle.
