Flash Fanatics tend to hear what they want to hear, see what they want to see, and believe what they want to believe. Whether it's Sean Lewis or Rob Senderoff, Flash Fanatics posters have unrealistic expectations.
When the University of Michigan struggled with 9-4 and 2-4 records during 2019 and 2020 respectively, at least one poster honestly believed Lewis would replace Jim Harbaugh at Michigan. And after the most boisterous Flash Fanatics urged Joel Nielsen to deemphasize football in favor of basketball, Nielsen created Kent State's "strategic vision" in making men's basketball the focal point for "revenue generation and national distinctiveness." But we all know how that turned out.
I understand wanting your teams to do well, but you need to be realistic about it.
With Dustin Crum and the offensive line graduating, it's hard to believe Lewis will improve his 7-7 record next year, but I fully anticipate posters on Flash Fanatics to expect a MAC Championship.
And with the Flashes turning a rout into a competitive game against Ohio University tonight, some Flash Fanatics will be encouraged and still believe Sendy will finally one day take the Flashes to "national distinctiveness."
Because they hear what they want to hear, see what they want to see, and believe what they want to believe.
