Jason Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 I of course hope we beat the Phillies. And for the duration of this series, "Phuck Philly". But I will be rooting for whoever wins this series the rest of the way. Philly is the team I like most (other than the Reds) of the teams involved.

Le Tigre Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 I'm glad for the Reds winning their division and making the playoffs. It's good for Cincinnati and good for baseball. New blood...it's a very good thing. But I always wonder why Reds fans always go fucking Yankeefan-like when good fortune comes their way? Oh well, enjoy it anyway.

AmishBengalFan Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Ah, LT, you're just jealous. You've caught a whiff of the sweet "new playoff team" smell the Reds are reeking of - something the Fillees haven't smellt in a half-decate - and you just wish for a little of it yourself. Hell, the Bravos used to make the playoffs so many consecutive times that their fans got fatigued by it and wouldn't even show up for games, much less beat their chests over how wonderful they were. The fifteen-year hiatus has pumped life into a depressed fan base. Please don't compare our team's fans to those of the mega cities of the east - while you may see a surface similarity, there really is a difference between an obnoxious YankSox fan and the small market fan who has seen dollars buy playoff berths while he's had to sit alone in October with nobody to dance with. Maybe we Reds fans are cocky, but I believe it is born of pent-up frustration more than anything else. If it will help, I think we'd all be okay for you to adopt a "let the baby have their toy" attitude. We know you're no better than us, but we're okay if you want to think you are. Traitor.

[/quote] Yeah, to our defense though its hard not to get maybe a little overly excited when your team makes the playoffs for the first time in 15 years. Its almost natural to act that way. And its probably going to continue in the playoffs, every hit every run we are going to get excited about, and when we win a game we will be even more excited. Now philly fans that have been here and done that probably wont be as up and down with wins and losses, and that might even help you guys if the players act the same way. Hopefully the reds wont get too up and too down about everything because as the phillies probably know its not just a 1 game series you have to win 3 games. I dont know, should be an interesting series, pretty much two opposite teams. 1 team that has been to the WS two straight years, 1 team that hasnt sniffed the playoffs in 15 years. We'll see which one pans out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cincybengalz Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Actually they are not two opposite teams. The current Reds team reminds me very much of the 2007 Phillies. Alot of hitting and so-so pitching. A few more pieces and they'll be right there. I could pump my chest all day and laugh my ass off at your "Fuck Philly" thread. I'll take the higher road. LeTigre hit the nail on the head... VERY Metfanlike. You DON'T want to put yourself in that class. Trust me... they are the little tart bus fans of the NL. It would be nice to have some objective conversation about the series. This is not the Steelers or Ratbirds. It's baseball. A cerebral sport. Let's have some intelligence and fun about this.

I dont get why its a big deal I said Fuck Philly? PS go to a phillies board, all they are talking about is how easy the phils are gonna sweep and how bad the reds are, so get off your high horse for a second and realize you guys are no better then any other teams fans.

oldschooler Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulCbD83ndvk&feature=player_embedded[/media] When you're a security guard at a Phillies game, [url="http://www.philly.com/philly/news/breaking/20100730_Pukemon_gets_jail_time.html"][b]you're dealing with people puking on fellow fans at games[/b][/url]. That means a minor fracas like this one is barely requires more effort than a smoke break. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Rfmes5S-ZY&feature=player_embedded[/media] These are the type of fans I hate...these scholarly, intellectual types. They go to the game, keep score, bust you over the head with sabermetics, constantly citing Bill James, obsessing over which contemporary players best match up with their counterparts from the 30s and 40s, always harkening back to the Golden Age. Snobs like this should find something else to do. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqgFM9E0Pa4&feature=player_embedded[/media] Phillies fans are a reasonable bunch, but sometimes they are just so passionate about their team that disagreements ensue, like this one. These Phillie fans and Yankees fans calmly talked about some of the key moves Charlie Manuel and Joe Girardi had to make suring last year's World Series. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWYl4gKif1M&feature=player_embedded[/media] I'm not sure if [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2O9TOiU090"][b]this particular person[/b][/url] is a Philly fan or a Phillies team employee. Gotta be honest, I'm not sure if these Philadelphians are celebrating a win by the home team or the release of the newest Boyz II Men album.
