After 205, when Conor loses and everyone goes Full Ronda on him after the obligatory 24 hours of Sherdog forums down.
The more mature sherdoggers need take time to think about the loss that many other Sherdoggers are feeling and lead by example of what being a true Sherbro is, by showing empathy, patience and unconditional kindness to the Conor fanboys in need. Being their to comfort their fellow Sherdogger who is pain. That's what being part of online community like this is really about. It's what Al Gore envisioned.
We need to have a support system in place for these Sherbros who have fallen on hard times.
Possibly if we can get a MOD sticky for a test run thread, about Conor's loss. To give them a chance to prepare. We don't need to let this get out of hand like the Ronda situation and let it draw the attention of 4 chan trolls and hateful subreddits, that the mainstream media will turn too.
I suggest that all Conor fanboys designate a safe non Conor fanboy Sherdog friend in advanced too lean on and to go to for strength in these trying times .
You must be able to identify the stages of grief and not let them over come you.
All Conor fanboys should go ahead and preselect some new avatar options.
Work on getting anti Conor memes going.
Go ahead and get ready to redistribute that blind casual passions u to another superstar in making or possibly go back to an old faithful. It's ok to choose Ronda again, no one will judge you here.
Possible good transition Fanboy choices
I
I highly suggest the more extreme Conor fans choose Cody, it should be an easier transition for unrealistic expectations and how much he annoys everyone.
Classic stand by choices.
Some people don't have all the money In the world or good looks and a proper education to slide by on. Some people out there don't have all the good things in life handed to them. Some of us have to work hard and go through many ups and downs to survive and be happy in the world. I know what it's like to have been a blind fanboy full of passion to live through someone else accomplishments, because I had nothing to be proud of in my own life.
Years ago I would have been ashamed to share my story of survival. Too all the Conor and Ronda fans out there, it will get better I time, the wounds will begin to heal. Don't let forum trolls try and take away some of the happiness you found in these amazing people.
When I was a teenager I had poor grades and a bad attitude, my trailer I was living in with my mom and stepdad burnt down. They went to stay with friends but school had just started and I had to go live with my stepdads dad, Roger(he wouldn't let me call him grandpa). I had saved up money cleaning chicken coups and delivering newspapers to watch summer slam and it was lost in the fire. I was very upset because I had no friends , like I do now online. The internet wasn't easily accessible back then as it is today. So I could not just go watch it at some ones house. Roger really wasn't that found of me, and had grown sick of me whining about missing summer slam.
Now lets get to the point, the Rock was facing some new up and comer football guy , who was unfairly being hyped ..Brock Lesnar. The Rock had been my entire life . I had worked hard to save up for a 500$ shirt. Back then Walmart used to sale shirts like that. I loss that I'm the fire too.
Roger finally gave in and promised to take me to hooters to watch. The ups and downs of the anticipation then the betrayal of Vince McMahon . It was over whelming. When Brock too the belt I felt like part of me died, that I was completely worthless . It didn't make sense, I know now that I was being selfish because I was young and that I should have tried to imagine how The Rock felt and what he was going through. I was shattered. But eventually it got better. I got my GED , almost completed 3 weeks of basic training.
Things were finally turning around and it wasn't because of The Rock. It was because I started to believe in me. Today I am part time shift manger at a Pizza Hut, I share an apartment with some cool people I met on Craigslist and there is even a UFC gym in my town. I'm hoping to join if I get full time hours so,I can start training .( If the Rock happens to read this, I know Vince set you up)
It will get better be glad you have real friend online to help you through the pain.
