I've always tried to address the take, not the person, and I've rarely had any real beefs as a result. I respect that some need to keep a delusional sense of hope in order to maintain their fandom.
I've always said - going back to the mothership - that the boards reflect the team. If we're 8-0 and rolling, most people will be happy. I've seen it. But if we're 0-6 for the 7th time since 1990 (iirc) or 0-7 in the playoffs, people are generally going to be pissed. Seems simple, but some seem to struggle with that I guess?
I think a break from the boards periodically during seasons like this is something I'd highly recommend.

The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
