I agree with this, the happy ground is cheering for the Sox to win but being able to understand a loss is OK too.
On the flip side what someone wants doesn't matter to the actual outcome of the game, so this discussion is just pointless.
Records 0-0 to start next year, nobody will be thinking about 100 losses then.
Astros had 100 losses, Cubs too.. Twins had a 100 loss season then went on to make the playoffs the next year.
