2 things that are really bothering me

[SmootSmack]

This goes beyond any questioning of Gibbs. It's ok to question Gibbs. That's not what I have an issue with. I think it's stupid to question him and seemingly never anyone else. But I guess I'll just have to accept that's how it will be so long as he's here.

And I'm not lumping all fans here. I mean when you all rip on the media or ESPN in particular, I know you're not ignorant enough to assume it's every single person in the media or every single person at ESPN.

Honestly, I've been of the opinion for a couple decades now that there are too many "bad fans" Way too many for a proud franchise that claims to have the greatest fans. When I see/hear total silence when we're on defense, loud commotion when we're on offense, chattering during a moment of silence (I dont't give a flying you know what what they were chanting, moment of silence means moment of silence, when I hear people saying after yesterday's game that the team should be ashamed of itself for letting the fans down, when I hear people claim that the only true fans are the ones that find fault at every turn because they're the ones that "really care" and so on, when I read all week about supporting the team during a difficult time and being understanding no matter what the outcome, and then seeing them turn out to be idle words (and then hearing that coaches/players were cursed at and booed)...I just have to wonder how can we claim to be this great community of fans (and has there ever been a longer run-on sentence in the history)

I hope my faith is restored, but some have lost faith in Gibbs and I, for now, have lost faith in the overall fandom.
