Being a fan is irrational

Posted on 08:56 by hony
Let's pretend you were a manager at a company and you had an employee you really liked. But every time you assigned that employee a project, they'd talk up how great they were going to do on it but their results would range from mediocre to abysmal. At the end of the project you'd be disappointed.

How many projects would you give this employee before you stopped liking them so much? How many mediocre projects must they screw up before you are forced to face reality and fire them?

And yet, there are still people who are Royals fans.
