Mood

Who is happier

Fan Score counts positive comments per 1,000, so a loud fanbase cannot buy its way up the board. Positive share tells the same story as a percentage of everything said.

I haven't seen a team this bad in my life. This is a disaster. The players, the plays. Nad probably the coach one of the worst in history
