The sad part about this is I am old enough to appreciate the descriptors here.

But I can get the impatience.

Supporting a team mired in losing is not easy.  You want it to stop and stop now.  Some Jaguars fans have never known this team to win until now.

I remember during my Dallas days between 1986-1989.

All I had known in my life were winning Dallas teams.  

Those four years were a nightmare.  But hiring Jimmy Johnson and seeing the Herschel Walker trade gave hope for the future.  I just had to see it through.

Those four years-and to a lesser extent the years immediately prior-made me see that football, as a general rule, is cyclical, and there are ebbs and flows.

It helped me better understand and be able to tolerate 2008-2016.
