What you’re missing is that players have a final season. It will never come again. When it’s over, it’s over. But fans always have another season to look forward to. When next season starts, fans will forget all about this past season. Even now we are looking forward to next season. We are already discussing who is coming back and who is coming in. I remember watching X losing in the NCAA tourney as a #1 seed, but I really can’t tell you a whole lot about the game, even though I was there in the stands watching. But the seniors, who played in that game and lost, will replay that game over and over again in their minds. The players that are missing out on getting to do something they have dreamed about and trained for their whole lives will have a hard time ever healing that wound, because they will never get another chance to do it. No matter how many years they play pro and no matter how much money they make they will never get a do over on their college senior season.

As far as fans taking it harder than the players....you have no idea what you’re talking about. It’s just that players have to learn how to deal with defeat. It’s something they have to learn. They learn how to deal with it, but that doesn’t mean that they don’t take it hard.

If you are Georgia Tech, serving that one year postseason ban, are you openly laughing right now?
We've come a long way since my bench seat at the Fieldhouse!
