MLB 2010 (Read 1040 times)

    Since Beta wanted to start talking about pitchers and catchers in the NFL thread, its time to think about the boys of summer since football is done and college basketball only gets interesting for three weeks, NBA blows, hockey is more fun to play than watch and no one sees the merits in discussing the EPL table or relegation race.

     

    Of course these truths are self-evident:

    This is the year of the Cubs - the curse will be lifted.

    The Yankees suck

    The Red Sox suck

    The Mets suck

    The White Sox suck

    and the Cardinals can eat shit and die.

     

    Discuss.

      Well, I think what happened was, I just puked my excitement onto the first 2010 thread I could find.  Unfortunately, for the premature NFL 2010 thread, it got in the way of the projectile.

          I passed the AAA stadium in town the other day.  They are kicking baseball out in favor of freaking soccer.  Who gives a rip about soccer.  That stadium was a baseball stadium first.

            I just don't see how a Cubs fan can be hatin' on the Red Sox.  What did we ever do to you?  We don't even play in the same league.


            I mean everyone hates the Yankees so I get that one but the Sawx?  Come on, guy.

              Baseball is so violent.

              What the hand dare seize the fire?

                Cubs fans just have generalized rage. 

                  Its the century of futility. It makes you hate anyone that has won a WS. I actually rooted for Boston and then you had to go and get all high falutin with those titles.

                   

                  The Yankee hatred is a given. Talk about your elitist pricks. The Yanks have a corner on that market.

                   

                  And Ennay - that is sad. No real football pitch would ever work in a baseball facility. Its like dogs and cats living together. Ain't natural

                    Mikey - yeah, I think its the fact that the cubs and sox were cursed brethren and then the sox up and won.   Now the cubs have no brothers in misery anymore.    What, are they going to cuddle up with the Indians now? Hardly.

                      I can't take MLB seriously as long as their drug testing is such a joke.

                          took the words right outa my mouth.

                          hating on the skankees is perfectly acceptable, but the sox, c'mon.

                            I will tell you why a Cub fan might hate the Sox.  First off, they have the same name as a GD southsider, but they are red instead of white.  Then, the GD Sox won a who is cursed worse contest.  No biggie, it just kinda proves how cursed the Cubs are.  Then, one day after running a marathon in DC, and following it up with drinks at a bar with a few friends, Including my bud Sudsy from Bahston, (Yes, he drives a caw.) the GD Sox won the GD World Series.  I huged Sudsy and called him a GD Sox fan.  Sox fans bitch and whine about being cursed, but a least they got there.  I would just like my team to get there in my lifetime, even though we will most likely lose.  It's the life of a Cub fan.  Damn goats anyway.

                            I'm touching your pants.

                              I gotta say, I've always been cool with the Red Sox. I seriously rooted for them when they finally broke the curse and it was an awesome series.


                              Having said that, a rather solid number of R Sox fans have really kind of become douches since the victories. Dunno about Boston area, but in the midwest it's been pretty extreme. In fact, they kind of start acting entitled and shitty...you know, like Yankee fans.

                                Also- there is another huge reason to hate on the Red Sox I forgot about!


                                They are part of the American League. Sorry, but the DH is still total bullshit. The pitcher needs to hit.
