But it is different this year.



And that is the difference.
One of my favorites was four or five years ago where Gene and Spector did a bit from training camp, and talked seriously about how much better the Oilers would be that coming season, and the best reason they could give for that conviction was that the players and the fans really, really wanted it to happen.

I posted a tongue-in-cheek summary in an earlier iteration of this thread along with the link to the SN video. The responses were amazing because of how closely the actual content aligned with my best efforts to be as absurd as possible.
