Football fans develop some curious habits when their team hasn’t given them much to cheer for on the field for three decades.
For example, just about every offseason, following a disappointing finish, the fans on Hogs Haven engage in annual ritual of projections showing how the various improvements to the roster in free agency and the draft, along with a few UDFA hopefuls, will lift the team from the doldrums of the Snyder era and deliver a ten-win season or better. When you consider that the team has had three winning seasons in the last decade, it becomes apparent that most of the time this is just wishful thinking.
