MLB: 2017

All sports. We don't even mind if its women's Curling or junior badminton. Although we won't have strong opinions on the latter.

Most Broncos fans on the internet couldn't possibly be more annoying. They whine and cry about everything.

But who cares? I'm in the business of trying to enjoy life, not be a Negative Nancy.

Find all of them and let's compare the total number to the number of Dodgers fans.

But don't really tho. This isn't about whether you're wrong or wrong. My point was really that you need to stop bitching about stupid and inconsequential things like fan bases, it's unpleasant to read. You complain about an endless amount of shit already, why not cut that out of the equation?

Generally yeah for sure. That's why it's helpful to shed sweating the small stuff tho, more and more things become actually problematic and deserving of negative energy. Sports is a safe space for adults. :lol:

I've been to Dodger Stadium probably 50 times in my life. Not a single incident. None. Great place, great people. I'm sure you're incapable of enjoying it with your overwhelming negativity but that's on you. Most people try to enjoy their lives.

Were you wearing opponent gear?

I went to Dodger stadium once, had about a half dozen people simultaneously yelling insults, throwing shit at my car and literally trying to run me off the road after I exited the stadium. Classy people.

Don't get me wrong. I had great encounters with some fans. About half of which said I was ballsy as hell for wearing Rockies shit at the game. Even they know a huge portion of their crowd is total scum.

Also, weird... everyone I've known that has went to Dodger stadium has witnessed an incident nearly every single time they have went. A Dodger fan threw a beer at a friend I know and turned to find him running away. One guy got a knife pulled on him in the parking lot. Others mosty see other people fighting.

But hey, 50 games with no incidents is a good streak. Just don't wear opponent gear I guess. I am 0-1

People who don't look for trouble generally don't find trouble. Shocking!

Joking about fans is funny. Constantly whining about them and being bitter and angry when talking about them just makes you look come across as an unpleasant human being. Very Scrooge-like.

And that's coming from a family of Giants fans, lol. Dodgers fans don't give a fuck about the Rockies. I don't dress for games as I'm really not a fan of any team but my dad and brother are dressed in black and orange every time. They've never had an issue.

I guess every instance I'm aware of is the exception to the rule. Including mine. I literally went out of my way to be friendly to people, still got violence in the end.

Why do fan bases trigger you so much when it's well-known and accepted that sports fans are naturally irrational? You take it personally in such a tribalist way. Couldn't be me. Every fan base in sports is great for the sport.

Not all fan bases are created equal. It is fun rooting against the shitty ones (Loss Angeles, Philadelphia, Oakland).

Actually, they're pretty much roughly equal. Every fan base has the same subgroups of fans within them.

Not all subgroups are created equal, then. There are more shithead fans in Loss Angeles than there are anywhere else in the U.S.. Why you're trying to deny that and say everyone is equally good and equally shitty is beyond me. You are probably the only person on the planet who will attest to this. There is a reason you're not allowed to tailgate at Dodger stadium.

I've noticed your tendency to follow up information that isn't fact-based with the overcompensating statement "Why you ___________ is beyond me".

Only Negative Nancies who can't enjoy things harp on concepts like "worst fans". The rest of us think you're all bad at parties.

I am terrible at parties; I am kind and don't start fights.
