    If I haven’t written the team off 5 times before half time I’m not really watching the game. I ride the waves of emotion once the game starts. It’s the only way I know.

    thats a big part of what makes big basketball games enjoyable. The one defensive play, tip, rebound or bounce to a shooter that turns the game around and you can see it in faces and body language. Then it switches back. And again and again. Love that part of the game, as long as teams can respond and aren’t like Louisville who just gets their ass whipped every game.

    Heck, I can't write teams off even when I really should.

    I'm like the oily sax guy at the beginning of Lost Boys. I still believe.

    Yeah that was wild. The first time I thought maybe I missed a foul on a cutting Tennessee player but realized the second time what e were hearing.

    I always forget that “fan” is short for “emotionally stable, reasonable, and level headed person.” You’re totally right. You should definitely care so much about what other people are posting during those game chats.

    I’m just as much of a fan as anybody in here. Being a fan doesn’t mean you have to say stupid shit

    Sports forums live for posts of the stupid shit variety.

    Live chat is not the place to look for level headed commentary. If you were sitting with me during a game, you would get the same level of idiotic drivel.

    if you are freaking out and want protection from a comment talking about you freaking out, post it somewhere else in a safer space for you.

    It evidently means “I want to be a little [itch bay] for a bit and don’t want anybody to comment when I am”

    My experience when I can't watch but peek at this forum: "holy shit we're getting killed, no one can shoot, nobody's defending, refs only call fouls against us, we suck, this the worst we've ever looked".

    Go check the score on BR, oh we won comfortably. Cool!

    I'd say game commentary is entertaining but not particularly informative.

    Lol.

    If I can't watch or listen, I very rarely will check a forum (any forum) for my updates. I'll go to a place where I can just get the score.

    Game chat is a bunch of fans sitting around the bar and watching a game together, reacting in real time and [itch bay]ing and moaning with every missed shot and cheering and clapping backs with every made shot.
