Absolutely. Youre putting words in my mouth. I am both excited and hopeful. AND
BYU doesn’t ruin my weekend. Ever.

Im not pessimistic. Pessimism is “an attitude of hopelessness”.

That’s not me at all, in any way. I am excited about every game. I see hope in every game, I honestly believe we have the possibility of winning every game. I go to many games. I watch every game. That is not an “attitude of hopelessness”, pessimism.

Now, I can feel all of those things AND evaluate probabilities. I can adjust my expectations to match probabilities AND still be excited about every game, and still be hopeful in our chances to win every game.
