I've been so torn on this subject, that I'm being pushed to beyond caring. We're in no man's land, with the team showing no signs of the ability to go on an extended run to get out of the rut. i.e. we aren't underachieving. This is just the team's ability. I just want to see them play hard.
I can't help it but root for the team when we're on the ice, but it'd be nice to drop a few spots.
Loyal fan reasons to cheer against the tank:
-can't cheer for a bunch of losers
-can't cheer against my own team
-don't want the losing culture
-"look at Edmonton"
-Bonk's "cut my own leg off before I cheer for my team to lose" line or whatever it was
etc.
