Why would the Cubs owners dish out more money for better coaching, or players, when the fans are ok with having a team that can't hold it together all season?
But answer this question.... Just because I don't (can't) go to a Sox game, does that make me any less of a "True Fan" than someone who does go to the games? Just because I don't have the extra $50+ (Ticket price, parking, a couple beers, etc.) to go to a game doesn't mean I don't support them.
Being a TRUE fan means you are a fan of that team, win or lose, which I have always been a Sox fan.
Chris I was not saying that because you can't make it to a game that you are less of a fan! I was stating that someone who wouldn't want to go to a game when they are losing is less of a fan! If I have a ticket I'm going regardless of win loss count!!!
And to anyone who questions my loyalty or intellegence(SP? HEHE) read the last thread about this!
Last year I didn't want to cheer for the Sox but I did! Out of respect, they were doing something that hadn't been done in Illinois for a long time! As of right now! Suck the Fox!!!!!!!!! (change the first letters around!!!)
IT'S ALL ABOUT THE PAIN; THE INK AND THE JEWELRY ARE JUST SOUVENIERS
