I show a good amount of emotion, but that does not make me a more passionate fan than someone who doesn't show a ton of emotion.

Since you didnt answer my previous question I'll take it from here - I'd say Dick Strong, who doesn't show a ton of emotion, is still a pretty damn passionate person about the Marquette bball program, wouldnt you? Therefore, your simple statement of "if you show more emotion it means you have more passion" is just bs and quite frankly insulting to those passionate fans who aren't very emotional people.
My whole point was...you absolutely CANNOT be passionate about something, without being emotional about it either. I don't care what it is. If your not emotional about it, you're not passionate about it. Those two things are directly tied together. Some people just choose to show their emotions in a private manner rather than public(and that's perfectly fine). All I'm saying is...the people that claim this season hasn't bothered them(more than disappointed), have the luxury of channeling that frustration, anger etc to other avenues, and have distractions to not allow them to become AS emotional about it as some. Walk in my shoes, and I'm pretty sure ALL of you(or a good majority) of you would react the same way as I do, and be a bit more understanding why I am so emotional about it. It's easy to sit there and blast me for being so vocal and so bitter and angry on the other side of your computer...but again, I'd LOVE to have the outlets most of you. That's all there is to it.
