The Nevada loss killed a lot of Bearcats souls.
It didn't kill mine, however I did stop taking basketball nearly as serious as I did.
When UC lost, it would ruin my weekend. I'd borderline be a bad husband and father just because a team I cheer for lost.
It was ridiculous.
I've since dialed it way back.
People watch sports for fun, for it to be a break from every day life and shit that actually matters. I've already told myself that if being a fan is no longer fun and that if I get more emotion from losing then I do winning, then its time to cancel the season tickets and find another hobby.
That also said, I personally find it more entertaining to have online message board fights with people who cheer for our opponents rather than fight with my own fan base. I've spent a lot of time on an AAC board. The shit talking there is elite.
At least Jacob didn't lose his fandom, instead just his desire to talk sports on a message board
