Yeah..mate I can relate...Sanctorum wrote: ↑Mon 09 Nov 2020 11:39amHey shane, speaking from a lifetime, (62 years) as a Saints supporter, with far more downs than ups, I feel very lucky to have chosen St Kilda FC.shanegrambeau wrote: ↑Sun 08 Nov 2020 10:05pm
Yeah.
I don’t do advice.
But there is something about the above post that rings true.
As a teen and young adult, I honestly blamed St Kilda (and still do) for Anxiety Disorder, Bi-Polar Type II, Multiple Personality Disorder, Borderline Disorder and later Complex Borderline Disorder, ADHD, and a variety of other ailments...including that I am stuck living in Japan teaching English, and marooned on Gilligams Island except Ginger ain’t interested.
Phoney humility? Probably. Blame the Saints for that too.
Not that anything needs to be wrong with you!
Just speaking for myself.
Why?
Well for one thing it has strengthened my resolve to survive adversity, at a level unequalled by any other team supporter.
As I have mentioned before, it is a little known fact that Saints supporters are deserving of honorary doctorates in Grief Counselling. No longer do I suffer anxiety watching St Kilda play as I never expect them to win, such is their appalling record, not that I ever give up hoping, and when they do win it is a real thrill and gives me great joy!
By lowering expectations, being a team supporter is so much more pleasurable, and although we all know AFL is like a religion, you need to have blind faith to be a true adherent.
interesting that you say thatOn the other hand...in the arts, music etc. I am a free spirit and I don't give a f%%&&( about being current or popular etc. so that is good. Again, I think St Kilda is a club that is tolerant of freaks or left of field types...mythology perhaps...

i gloss over the personal rubbish.SaintJohno wrote: ↑Sun 08 Nov 2020 10:19pm I've only been on the forum for a short time compared to many, but I must say I've been disappointed by the attacks that a few, obviously passionate, posters slam onto each other. Obviously there's many years of history amongst these 5 or 6 regular saints fans, but it doesn't seem to contribute much to the discussion that many of us, or at least I want to read about. It's awesome that you guys have a lot of knowledge and passion about what's going on.... I want to hear that stuff. What I think is not cool is attacking each other about whether their post has backup or ITK sources etc or that in the past they screwed up with a prediction. Who really gives a flying f@#k if they were wrong? In the words of Joe Biden, let's all come together for the common passion of the Saints (he didn't actually say that) and just enjoy the rumours, predictions, hot tips and whatever else may come up because in the next few years there's a lot of love coming our way.
