(I'm 54), I've learned to try to just enjoy the things I'm a fan of, like Clemson sports. I like 'em all - even basketball. I follow any that have an Instagram or FB page. I just enjoy keeping up. If they win - great! If they don't - it stinks, but it doesn't ruin my day - but I much prefer it and I'm in a much better mood when they win! More than that, I'm a fan of Clemson University. I graduated there, my dad did, my brother, my sister-in-law, my grandfather, and several cousins all did as well. I love Clemson University and everything about it.
NIL, the portal, various sports talking heads, 1.5%ers, coach's news conference, etc - I don't really care. I have my opinions, but overall, I just try to enjoy all things Clemson. I try to leave the problems of how to run the teams to the coaches in charge. I just try to support each team as best as I can, however I can - which is getting harder and harder as prices on things go up and my income doesn't!
