If this board had any more optimism, we would all start spontaneously start pooping rainbows.

The optimism is just relative.

As for the OP... sucker.

You are why Mike Brown gives all the fans a double middle finger and brings back Lewis for his 16th season, because they give a couple "huzzah, huzzah" press conferences, hire a crappy coach or two, and tell you how THIS time everything is going to change.... and you're eating it up.

Life is hard.  People need outlets.  What's the harm?  Does it lessen the quality of your existence if somebody else wants to believe? 

There used to be a saying.  People don't use it much any more because it's the opposite of how they want to conduct themselves these days.   But I'll dust it off anyway.

Live and let live.
