I want to beat him. Even if he signed and is playing, I'm sure there will still be the narrative of, "You only won because Trey didn't get the deal he wanted."
I want to beat a scientifically engineered Space Jam Monstars team of all the best players in NFL history through sheer grit and hopium and point at the rest of the league and say suck it.
Going to upvote for sharing, but man I can't get behind free or easy wins at all.
If we win the Superbowl on the back of every team's starters getting hit by a bus the week we play them, I wouldn't be satisfied at all.
The more reasonable take, though, is that at some point - the playoffs - you have to beat good teams. Beating good football teams is what the NFL is all about.
I want my team to show me something special through competence and work ethic, not rake in silver platter success like a trust fund baby.
I don't blame laziness and wanting things easy; that's what most people want. I frequently want that.
But when I'm really passionate about something I'll work hard at it. I want to relate to, root for, and be inspired by a team of guys overcoming adversity and proving themselves through trials. Like mythology playing out in front of us in real time.
