Because you, a white sox fan, decided to go over to their message board and start talking s***? By the way, how do you have the time to do that? C'mon man. Whats the point? A Royals fan would be received the same way if the roles were reversed. That said, fu** the Royals! Edited May 20, 2016 by ChiSox59 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's not representative of their fanbase as a whole, but as someone who frequents /r/baseball (Reddit) and Fangraphs a lot, their fans in both communities have become absolutely insufferable over the past year (and this started happening well before the World Series).

chitownsportsfan Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Royals lineup really doesn't scare me. Helps to have Avila back to help shut down their running game as well and Q does a decent job keeping guys close. Sox do what they should and score 4-5 runs this should be a win.

caulfield12 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 QUOTE (Dunt @ May 20, 2016 -> 11:09 AM) I dont know, caulfield has been here awhile And you'll find I had just as many posts about the Twins in their heydey, the Tigers from 2011-2014 and now the Royals. Since we have spent more time than all but three organizations without a playoff appearance now, the only way to to make baseball bearable is also appreciating what the good teams do and trying to learn from/emulate their best aspects and discard the rest. Hawk Harrelson does it all the time. Did he love the Twins more than the White Sox from 2001-2010? Heck, our own manager, Ozzie Guillen, spoke more highly of them than his own team for most of his tenure. "If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle." Sun Tzu And make no mistake, the biggest enemy of the White Sox over the past 15 years has usually been themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 (edited) I feel duped by Royals fans. When I went to school there, the Royals fans seemed normal compared to the awful cardinals fans. It appears they were just beaten down, and as soon as they tasted winning they display the same tendencies. Edit: I didn't actually read caulfields post before my edit.

Again that's not what I was talking about at all. That was a thread on the Chiefs forum I visit. I've dealt with them for a few years.
