I hate losing. I'm as frustrated as anyone and yet I haven't missed going to a home game yet this season. I've been reading all the rants and quite frankly - I just want to know who's still in this thing. I know you're out there. I know that even though you're frustrated, you're not going anywhere and I'd just like to see you stand up and be counted in this thread.
This isn't life or death stuff... it's baseball, but if you love baseball like I love baseball, then you probably want a place where you can rally around others. This thread is it.
I know (boy do I know) - there will be many who will try to rain on this parade - but that's ok.
If you're like me - you haven't responded to all the negativity and quite frankly some of the nonsense because you know it's pointless. And yet... you want to be heard... you want to express yourself and let everyone know that you're still here to watch and cheer and not disappear. You don't have to suffer in silence.
I want to be surrounded by others who aren't giving up and not so bent on pointing fingers. There's plenty of other places to do that, but here; in this thread - it's about rallying together. It's about ignoring the crap and focusing on the games. We embrace the "one game at a time" mentality and we're proud of it. We're willing to turn the page rather than relive it over and over again.
I know you're out there. Who's with me?
