1. Hope
2. Optimism
They aren't the same.
When Major was hired, I was about a 7-8 (out of 10) on the "hope" scale but only a 5-6 on the optimism scale. Dead center. First time head coach, sideways 2016 season. Just didn't know.
Today, I'm a 6-7 on the "hope" gauge," but I'm only around a 3-4 on the optimism dial.
I'll still keep my season tickets and I'll be there every Saturday home, just as I've been all but two times since 1971, but I'm thinking that this ain't gonna work out for Major.
