Re: When all else fails, lower your standards.
The thing that makes it hardest for me to give up hope is that in every loss we were reeaaaaaallllyyy close to winning...the wins were reaaaalllllyyy close to losses too so it's also hard to be confident. Had we gotten blown out of the water in any of the losses it would be much easier to write off the season....and had we smacked down any of the teams we beat I would be more secure in my confidence.
I have not lost hope; the fight the Rams are putting up against better teams has kept me hopeful....frustrated as hell, but hopeful. Yes that hope grows dimmer after each loss, but I still feel that lingering bit of confidence that something could and might come of this season.
We have many things wrong, but enough things right with our team that even if we don't make the playoffs we are building foundations for the future. That in itself gives me hope knowing that this coaching staff and front office actually care about the future of the Rams and desire to bring long term, lasting greatness to this football team.
With as many horribly rotten things that needed to be fixed on and off the field I think we all jumped the gun thinking about playoff glory for this season. Then again with our all weapons on offense it's hard not to be confident....I'm so confused.....aaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrgggggggghhhhhhh :\
