I've started rooting for Jason Bay.

Just because all the shit that was talked about him after the trade and about how “he’d good but he can’t replace Manny.” Factor in defense and he’s been as good or better since the day of the trade.

How can you not root for a guy when people are expecting him to fail?

He’s a new addition to the BoSox, so I can’t blame him for the bandwagon fans invading Safeco.

I don't blame any of the players, really. I don't mind the Red Sox as a team or an organization.

The fans are a different story, obviously, but mostly the Sox don’t bother me. I’m jealous, and as long as I admit that. I’m OK with it.

by Teej on Oct 3, 2008 9:46 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Yeah, I'm in the same boat. What gets on my nerves are the BoSox fan invasions of Safeco.

Every where you walk you here people talking in overly loud voices how they’ve been lifelong fans. Bullshit. Wait til the M’s get back on top, they’ll be back in teal or whatever the hell the color is, blabbering about how they’ve been long suffering M’s fans. I hate them, with my tiny, hardened, coal black heart.

I understand.

I guess the only Red Sox fans I know here in San Diego are pretty much lifers. Same with the Yankee fans. I have two or three big-time Yankees fans, and they were born and raised in New York. I guess I haven’t had to put up with much bandwagon-jumpers.
