If you really think about it, our sports teams are some of the closest relationships we have in our entire lives.
How many people in your life can compete with the amount of time and energy you’ve invested into your favorite team(s)? How many friends do you have more memories with than your team? How many times have your team or teams driven you to the heights and depths of your emotional capacity?
This may all sound very sad. I’m not here to tell you it isn’t — just stating the facts.
The truth is, sports fans have a hard time putting trust in their teams.
