But hope is what makes following sports so fun :-)

If you don't have any hope, what's the point in following them? Just seems like a recipe for being constantly miserable because you don't want to be let down.

I mean I have my doubts of course, but I most certainly have hope they'll have more than a 0% chance of winning this game (seems to be the mood around here, for the most part).
