For disclosure, I'm 29 almost 30, and this is such a load of shite. People are inherently curious and love affirmation regardless of generation. You only need to see a Facebook with every generation that can handle a computer going to town on there.

So ranters are just ridiculous, but if you keep it civil and sort of objective, then the athletes shouldn't complain. You know they REALLY love it when ppl gush over them when all is going right. It's all good then. But at the same time, if you like the praise, then you have to suck up the just criticism as well. Can't just be one way.

The ranters are paying the high ticket prices, and as taxpayers, they're paying via taxes for the education and the coaches salaries. So the old saying goes, if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

Ask yourself, if you get Popovich, Jackson, K, and Self to watch the game, then have a private discussion about the game, I assure you that they could identify pretty much everything that went wrong in an honest manner. And much of what is being said on here would be pretty much in agreement with what they think....

Fair point. Then let's say this generation has been given the tools to publicly display that self obsession more than any other. Sure it may be accessible to older generations, but they are typically beyond that stage of development compared to an adolescent.
