Boycott This Team

There are 31 other teams to support. There are other sports. If it makes you unhappy, then quit watching. Personally, I like it when they win, but this is my hometown team that I have supported since 1968. And this is one of my favorite groups of players from all that time. No way I'm boycotting anything.  

Some people fan differently than others and have a different satisfaction quotient (maybe less than a superbowl is starting to make them unhappy, or does). Whether another fan watches or not has no effect on whether I watch, it shouldn't affect you either, everyone has their reasons.

I personally do not equate being happier with losing, even though we have basically no control over the sports we watch.

I can imagine season ticket holders or even a ticket holder in general has more invested than me who barely goes to any of the games.

From a 50,000ft view, it's hard to be a fan of a loser, for whatever reason you became a fan in the first place.
