Same. As much crap as I've given Mike, I'll be as happy for him as myself.

That said, he'll probably think it's proof that his way worked.

He's quickly turning into the new Brady.

Brady had 8 in a row (2011 through 2018) and 14 conference title games overall.

Sports aren't like buying a car or a certain brand of sauerkraut. That's how a bandwagon fan would look at it. For die-hards, it's more like being part of a family, and you can't (or shouldn't) give up your family while they're down.

Bandwagons aren't really even sports fans, IMO. They just suffer from FOMO, and don't want to feel left out when something cool is going down. The joy most of us here felt when the Bengals finally won a playoff game is a level of joy that bandwagoners will never experience...because they haven't invested themselves like we have.
