Timmy U Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 I never want Cleveland to win the division. I don’t like them. I know others on this board feel that way about Minny, fair enough. If Detroit is ever good again in my lifetime, I can see their fans getting super obnoxious, but my number 1 Sox rival is the Guards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

almagest Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Plenty of time for Cleveland to win the division and have a "f*** that Boob" chant, but I don't disagree with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wegner Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 I don't really care at this point but I am rooting for everyone in the division to be under .500 because that is kinda hilarious. It also makes Hahn & Co look alot worse when they finish more than 10 games back to an under .500 divisional champ. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kids Can Play Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 It's irrelevant whether the Twins or Guardians win the central. Neither team has chance in hell to go far and win the World Series. Twins are +3000 and Guardians are +6000 to win the 2023 WS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I hate Minnesota with a passion and it's not even close to other division rivals. In late September 2008, I went to the Metrodome and saw the White Sox blow a 6-0 lead only to lose in extra innings. Myself decked out in White Sox gear, I had fans spitting on me, knocking my hat off, shoving me, etc. They thought they won the division with just 1 series to go against Kansas City. Obviously that didn't happen because the White Sox won Game 163. But long story short, the Minnesota Twins are my most hated franchise in all of sports. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 In fairness I've seen Sox fans give that same treatment to visiting fans. But I'd be pissed also. You are a brave guy to go in there decked out. I think the Minny rivalry is bigger because we seem more similar to Minny than Cleveland. Plus the football rivalry as well.
