john.cronin@oit.gatech.edu verily spake, saying: + Hey, at least we are not as psycho as the cubs fans HEY!! Don't mess with the World Champions from 1908!!! I don't care if radio was invented after then, and Haley's comet has passed twice, they're still the best team... EVER. Have you ever been to a Cubs game in Wrigley Field, eating a Bratwurst and a Malt, listening to Harry Caray (rest his soul (and liver))? Watching the guys in the scoreboard move around the metal plates that keep track of our score, and that of other games? That is what Baseball is meant to be. <Sigh> I watch these people who ``LOVE'' the Braves or the Cowboys or the Falcons when they are a winning team, and then pick some other team as their favourite when they start losing. Real fans are Cubs fans. Real fans are Packers fans from the 1980s. Real fans are those people who cheer on their team because it is *THEIR TEAM,* not because they like to cheer for the winner. I have no respect for fair-weather fans. -- Erich | ``Damned be him that first cries, `Hold, enough!' '' at wreck.org | --Macbeth, V, viii
