We can root for him while still pointing out deficiencies. My son can't field a ground ball to save his life and is a liability on the infield, but goddamnit he's my favorite player and I support the crap out of him. This idea that just because we think other players/coaches/teams are better means that we aren't "true" fans is crap and needs to stop. We know El Dio and McMaryion aren't here. We know Mike Riley is eating sweet corn and wearing red. We're still Beaver fans. We still want them to win every week, even if they have no chance. Call me wrong, call me an idiot, but DO NOT question my love for Oregon State. Here here. Same as the "America, love it or leave it" folks. I don't get that attitude. when you lawn is overgrown, do you not mow it? when your house needs repairs do you not fix it? Or do you just shrug your shoulders and say "whatever man, it is my house and I love it no matter what!" nah man... We criticize because we care. because we want a winner. because we want to look good and have a team we are proud of.
