How many fights will I have tomorrow night?
I have a low tolerance for "fans" that actually know nothing about the game. And I'm sure a WS game 6 will bring out tons of people that have money to spend but no sports smarts. I am also not immune to fighting with fans of my own team when they say stupid crap. Any one care to take bets??
Re: How many fights will I have tomorrow night?
HAHA! There is a guy I work with who is just like this! Has no problem telling me that he knows nothing about baseball during the regular season, but now he's the Phillies biggest fan. I will have discussions about the team/games with other co-workers and then he will come out and repeat what I just said, or tell me, "I know, I know." He wore a Yankees hat all summer, but he's a Phillies fan now...

I hate people like this. They all start coming out this time of year, and it really dosen't matter what sport, you see them all times of year when the playoffs start.
I can honestly say I've been a Yankee fan for close to 20 years (ok that was hard to write...it means I'm old) So I've seen the good and the bad.

I have been a Yankee fan all my life, and that is way more than 20 years. It all stemmed from my little old Italian grandparents who were practically run out of brooklyn for NOT being Dodger fans.
When I was a kid, the entire town knew what a die hard Yankee fan my nonni was. There was some sort of sports dinner in town and she was invited to have dinner with Mickey Mantle, because the organizers knew she could keep him entertained.
It really annoys me when people run their mouths at sporting events and in doing so show that they have no idea what they are talking about. I have been known to turn around and ask such an idiot "you don't know much about the sport of ____, do you?".
One such moment came in Toronto a couple years ago at a Yankees/Blue Jays game. The guy behind me kept screaming loudly that Andy Pettitte kept balking. I turned around and said something along the lines of, "Dude, shut up. There is no one on base. Try reading a rule book before you start yelling things and making yourself look like an idiot."
Wow, why not learn the rules? What a random thing to shout.
