For the most part I avoid direct interaction with fans - seemingly no good comes of it. And then the occasional "good" fan, the one who we often forget, politely walks up and asks a very straightforward question about a specific play or call trying to better understand and appreciate the game or offer their appreciation for your work; heck, they even say "thank you" after your reply. That's why I never say "never". Like everything else, guess you have to pick your spots.
Yes, and just when you think you've got a handle on "the fans" a seemingly innocent exchange can quickly turn around and bite you on your compression shorts.
