I have a question.

Are the people on /sp/ who rooted for the Rays to beat the Sox the same people who are now rooting against the Rays?

I find it funny that they are calling Rays fans bandwagoners when they are pretty much doing the same thing.

I'm not even a baseball fan but I'm rooting for the Rays because they're a great story. Would that classify me as a bandwagoner?

nah OP, im just a hater and a yankeefag so yeah i rooted for u guys to beat the sox and now i want you to lose dont take it personally just bandwagoning thats all.

rooting for someone in a series is not the same as being a bandwagoner of said team.

bandwagoners claim themselves as fans of the team.

Other people are just choosing a side in a single match up.

I was rooting for the Rays to beat the Red Sox because the Red Sox are motherfuckers who would probably win the WS despite being weaker than the Phillies at almost every position.

I'm not rooting for the Rays because I am a Phillies fan.

ITT: Sneak describes all Tampa Bay Rays "fans" with one simple question:

>Are the people on /sp/ who rooted for the Rays to beat the Sox the same people who are now rooting against the Rays?

The answer is, of course, yes. No one ever liked the Rays, you are the only true Rays fan. You are an anomaly. Other than you, everyone just wanted to see the Red Sox lose.

What do you expect when a team's fan base has to be taught baseball basics and terminology in their local newspapers just so they can follow their newly "Beloved Rays" for the last month and a half of the season.

Someone on here said it best last night:
9=8
9 Rays fans buy tickets...
8 Show up to the game.

I said almost every position.

Howard > Kotsay
Utley > Pedroia (but it is close)
Rollins > Cora/Lowrie
Feliz < Youk
Burrell > Bay
Victorino > Crisp
Werth = Drew (Drew underachieves, Werth has overachieved)

SP:
Hamels > Lester
Beckett sucked, Daisuke walks everyone, Myers is sketchy at best, Moyer is ancient, Blanton is fat.

Phils BP > Red Sox BP
Lidge > Papelbon

Lidge did his job every time he was called on, and had a lower ERA, and no losses.

lol at Moyer is ancient....

Pitchin' fuckin' gems at 45 years old and making diving plays (and getting fucked on them too).

lol at Blanton is fat
7 Ks over 6 innings allowing only 2 runs... striking out 4 of the first 8 batters, hitting a fucking home run deep into the night. Oh, and he is undefeated in this playoff year...

Everyone needs to just face the facts:
The Philadelphia Phillies are the single best baseball team in the world for the 2008 year.

Get over it... this is the test that proves the best team in the world every single year, and the Phillies are on the verge of proving it this year.

Then, I don't wanna hear any more shit from ANYONE.

Phillies>[insert team here]

Well at least if the Rays don't win the series, then all the bandwagoners will fuck off. I just hope this isn't a fluke season.

Am i an anomaly too?

I've liked the Rays since they came out, at first because i was a simple minded 10 year old kid who liked animals and baseball, so i liked all their Devil Ray symbols and colors, but they grew to be my favorite team, which is hard to say especially down here in Southern California. I'd have to watch games over the internet, or when they were in town to play the Angels, or on national tv. For years i got made fun of for having a Devil Rays hat, now they all call me a bandwagoner, pisses me off.

Whether the Rays win or lose, i'm still damn happy that they made it this far, and I'm still gonna wear my hat. The only good thing i can see out of a loss is a purging of the bandwagoners.

For the record, the Phillies bandwagon is like 10x worse than the Rays. At least the ppl on Ray's bandwagon were there longer than TWO FUCKING WEEKS AGO.
