Yeah. My brother was (and still is) the eternal optimist, and he got super pissed at me when I told him that the NCLS was over, and they might as well not even play Game 7 because no matter what, the Marlins would win. He started yelling at me, and I took out my wallet and slapped a 20 (the entire contents of my wallet, which was a lot because I was a poor college student) down on the table. I said "If the Cubs win this game, this is yours. You don't owe me anything if they lose." When Kerry homered, he was bragging and wondering how he was going to spend his 20 bucks. All I did was look at him and say "just wait." After the last out was made, he didn't talk to me the rest of the night. Optimist, pessimist or otherwise, you had no idea whether the series was over or not. The loudest prediction was all yours was. Go look in a game thread, people like you love being the one who "called" the loss first, as if it is some sort of badge. Really though you are simply a loud mouth oaf, and putting it on display for everyone.
