The last few days/weeks, all I've heard or seen on facebook is constant ranting about the Rangers, Yankees, who is a fan, who isn't a fan, "Go Rangers", "Go Yankees", "Rangers you can do it", "It's ok Yankees, you will get them next time", etc...(You get my drift).
Anyways, this whole post is to proclaim my hate for baseball.
Yes, I said, I hate baseball. It's by far the most boring sport to watch and the one professional baseball game I went to, I fell asleep. (No kidding. I got a good little nap in) Is this un-American? Probably. Do I care? Not at all!
On a more positive note (sourda), people keep griping about "Bandwagon Ranger fans". Who cares!
**It's not like Texas where everyone and their dog is a Texas fan because they Always win. (By the way, those t-shirt fans probably aren't so proud to wear orange right now are they? Maybe we will start to see a little more red and black in the clothing section of Wal-mart. haha)
Back to my rant....
People who normally don't care that much are proud that the underdog is actually winning AND that they are from Texas! Texas pride? Heck yeah! I think its awesome that people are excited for them. Now me, on the other hand, I could still care less. But for those new Rangers fans who don't now CJ something or other from Josh Hamilton, keep cheering, I see nothing wrong with it.
I would consider myself a bandwagon fan...and I am glad that you won't not like me because of that! :)
ReplyDeleteI used to hate watching baseball too but these games have been exciting to watch!
As I die-hard Ranger fan since conception (my bday is in July, baseball season is 9 months prior, you get it), I respect this blog. Baseball is in my blood, but it's not for everyone. For example, not everyone would've been named Nolan Ryan if they would've been a boy (me).
ReplyDeleteI don't mind the bandwagon fans, and those who do are not true fans but instead flakes who are trying desperately to make themselves seem like the ultimate fan. Such bull.
Umm Haley ...
ReplyDeleteyou said this perfectly!! NO GRIPES FROM ME!
But I do disagree with the whole baseball hating thing because I do actually love baseball. And how could any of us forget when you actually did fall asleep at the game during youth camp ... I believe it was you and cayley both! ha! Yall were always nap buddies!!!
Bandwagon fans are great cause atleast the are supporting SOMEONE and not being sour pusses for not making it.
soo .... GO RANGERS!! : )
Oh my... Haley Dwook.. you have just destined yourself to be a baseball coaches wife and you will have to set through hundreds of baseball games.... and you will not be allowed to fall asleep in them.
