He is a realist, but leans toward pessimistic. I am also a realist, but I tend to be way more positive than Joe. The negativity is a coping mechanism. When you throw your hands up and resign to the fact that your team is awful, it helps ease the pain. I tend to torture myself and try top convince myself that Bowles isn't a steaming pile of fetid turds.
No matter what you say about Joe, he's down to earth and fun to listen to. I miss listening to his show - where I relocated I cannot pull them in - the Tunein.com used to but I think you have to subscribe.
