well....wasn't sure how to spell "masochistic"
Masochism implies they enjoy pain.
I think its more of a projection and a proxy...
They place all their hopes and dreams of greatness in this life onto a tribal-proxy in which they get a martyr complex because they are proud for staying 'loyal' to an entity that not only eats their time/money/shame, it gives them the hope of someday being justified and validated.
That and the self righteous armchair coaching whose logic is thus: the pro coach paid millions F'd it up so many times, my ideas would work because i played highschool football for 2 years. Hence i can coach a pro team. Because my ideas are the opposite of the pro and i worship Johnny Football cuz he throws balls real far.
Thats my amateur field analysis so far...
Based on a test pool of friends and relatives.
