I'll say this: when we were losing games, I didn't want to come here and find what I thought I would find. Take that for what it's worth.
This is me, exactly. When the Rams lose I don't come back to the board until the following Friday when we are amping up for the next game. It's too depressing for me and I don't want to read all the "I told you so's" and the various other negative posts. I don't have a problem with anybody pointing out the negatives as it's their right to do so. I guess that I am guilty of being an all sunshine kind of fan. Hell, I often will take the Monday after a loss off as I find it a bit more difficult to get out of bed the morning after a loss. LOL!
That said, post away folks. Positive, negative, insights, etc. I love this board and appreciate/respect all who post here whether I agree with you on a particular topis or not.
GO RAMS!!!
I read the board all the time. And when they lose I don't see much in the way of "I told you so's" if any at all. Mostly what you actually get is a thousand versions of "yeah I was worried about that." Which is far from gloating or taking pleasure in it. I never see anything I would reduce to "bad motives." It's just venting usually.
And "negative" is itself a negative word, it's the equivalent of calling someone a cheerleader. No one says "I am a negative poster," that's something people get called by others. Just a thought. Take it into consideration.
Mostly the critical posts after losses go through an ascending order of "blame this guy." Starts with a player, then goes up to (usually) the offense playcaller, then if it persists it becomes the head coach and the GM.

Many posters though are capable of being critical when they win along with being celebratory, and also capable of seeing the good in the bad when they lose. That gets lost in the idea that there's just 2 sides. (My experience? It's never just 2 sides.)
All the above is obviously one guy's opinion. And, yes, absolutely, be yourself, call em as you see em, and post on.
