Hate to break it to you, but posting on a message board has zero effect on

what happens in the field. I just don’t understand the overwhelming negative, doom-and-gloom, “woe is us” sentiment that’s predominant in this fanbase, & that you are a caricature of. Like, how do you post 90% negative when this is team is as good as it is? And why do so many people here feel the need to point out every perceived slight by the TV announcers, Jim Phillips’ stylist, or whoever’s in charge of updating the ACC bracket? Who ****ing cares if it’s not updated? We won! My responses (“shut down the program!”) are generally to point out how ridiculous you sound, also to counteract all the negativity. You’re not the only one who’s mostly negative, & the worst are the ones who post nothing about softball for weeks & then chime in after a loss. Ok. Rant over. Hope you’re doing well, pro. Go Hokies!

I didn't mind that post at all. It's the small-sample size, in-game panic

We each suffer through games in our own way. You post. I don't.

My biggest gripe is Live Stats when its the only way I can follow the game.
