Exactly!
I should have said that -- once my team is eliminated -- I always root for the team with the least amount of recent success.
Don't agree. He just gets excited about anything exciting.Al Zarilla said:Goddam announcer was lobbying for that (as if he had anything to do with it, but STFU).

I meant before the hit the announcer was saying what a spot for a guy who isn't supposed to be able to hit (paraphrasing) and wouldn't it be something if he became a hero here (paraphrasing more). I don't care for announcers that use what ifs in advance. The A's announcers are always doing that, like "what if Stephen Vogt hit a HR here off Uehara like he did the last time the Red Sox were here..."InsideTheParker said:Don't agree.

Good one. I remember in 2004, after a few teenage Red Sox fans were interviewed after the series, some commentator said he wanted to hear from a fan who was 70.54thMA said:The twenty something ballbag Cubs fans with the backward caps are all fired up "YEAH, OUT at the plate and we're tied baby!"
The sixty something old lizzard Cubs fans shoehorned into their large "Santo" jerseys are crushed "great, out at the plate BUT NOW WE'RE TIED!"
"Wouldn't it be amazing if a utility guy like Brock Holt got a big hit here to win the game. Earlier in the season he had been hitting well, and even hit for the cycle against the ***, but lately he has seemed to run out of gas. If he got a hit here against ***, it would be a great coup for a guy who is known more for his ability to play seven positions than for his bat."Al Zarilla said:I meant before the hit the announcer was saying what a spot for a guy who isn't supposed to be able to hit (paraphrasing) and wouldn't it be something if he became a hero here (paraphrasing more).

I got to see the Cubs at Wrigley in August. So that's my reasoning. Go Cubbies!E5 Yaz said:I'm favoring the Cubs because I always root for the team with the least amount of recent success.
