Then they keep it up by winning close games and making comebacks that they have no right to make, but you see the major flaws and the players playing over their heads, and so you still keep that mindset.
Then all of a sudden everything bad starts happening at once. The comebacks fall just short, the pitching falls apart, and you start losing to worse teams. And no matter how you have kept your mind and heart separated throughout the season and fully expected what is happening, you still end up feeling upset and angry and shitty all at once.
Ugh.

yeah, you're not alone in feeling this, most of us have experienced this as sports fans too many times to count. Those of us who are Red Sox, Cubs fans etc know what it's like in a way, but I think that it's almost worse to be a Baltimore or Oakland fan sometimes.
By the way, I don't have as much interest in the Allstar Game this year, is anyone else in this boat? I can't say whether is is because of all the Yankee Stadium hoopla, or because of a sort of disillusionment...
