Sad that I actually have to do this with my boys, but as most of you guys that have been a fan for 20 years or more and have young boys, know what I'm talking about. Thats a testament to how bad this team has been and how hard it has been to suffer as a fan for life.

Thank God some of us got to see the 80's team but, that was a long time ago.

So I share anyones frustration and hold nothing against them for expressing themselves as loud and nasty as they want to be.
When was your dad a Skins fan? Just asking because the Skins of the 50s and 60s were mediocre to average so I'm sure he suffered just as much if not more

He was a fan in the 60's for sure. I'm not sure exactly when he started watching them. I guess it was the timing of it that changes the perspective of things for me. I seen the Skins as a winner early in my "adventure" as a fan And then almost nothing. Were he got to see them become a dominate team right in the middle of his ride.

Your statement about him suffering as much might be right.

I seen them go from dominate to... well you know. I guess I still view them as that dominate team that just cant seem to get it together and it frustrates me. Seems like we have tried so many things, Owners, coaches, players, nothing seems to work.

Dad got to see a more consistent organization. Maybe thats it, Not really sure why I don't pass the tradition on as easily as he did. Maybe I just got spoiled early on.
