Sadly, most turned out to be fair weather fans.

We had lower bowl season tickets for 4 or so years and for one of them the dudes in the row in front of us would get wasted and just yell PERRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOO all game. good times. wish the 60 win season didnt price me out. although that 60 win season was the most fun i've had in a while. cant wait to rebuild this thing so i can finally bring up the hawks in conversation and have random people be excited again.

It's been about 6 years since I last posed this question.

Honestly, I'm having a hard time answering the question at this point.

I can still remember my first Hawks game - I was so excited, telling everybody and anybody I was gonna see the Human Highlight Film. I got up that morning - The Hawks trade the HHF for one stinkin" freakin' Danny Manning. :banghead:.
If that didn't turn off my fandom, nothing else will. Hawks are stuck with me.
I enjoy going to Philips to games, when the crowd is engaged it's awesome.

I still don't know after this above.
But depending on how the TDL and offseason plays out...might be time to rethink this. :(

I often don't feel very good about our team...but I will never follow another

Ressler and his nepotism thingy is a new low though

Sometimes I really do regret falling in love with this raggedy franchise back in my teen years...

We have never had an extended run of above averageness.

Even during the 10 year playoff streak, we frequently had a losing record, lost in the first round or got swept out of the playoffs.

We volley between bad and average with an occasional hot stretch of 2 months *that makes us believe something wonderful is on the horizon.

But it never is.

Just do like Raheem Morris and tell yourself it's just a game

I may need a break from the Hawks.
I have no idea what the plan is. :-?
