If you put it in context of a sports team it makes way more sense. What he’s trying to do is say “dude look at your favorite team’s averages, they’re terrible.” No one’s gonna listen to that and they’ll just find any cope they can because it’s their favorite team and the other team is really boring and lame so they can’t be right.
You’ve put way more thought i to this than they do. They are just delusional amd think things are great now and things are cheaper when they aren’t.
