[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I honestly don't get it.  I enjoy going to games and I'll cheer for the home team, just to make it fun for myself, but I don't care whether they win or lose.  Surely not enough to get all worked up and for me to be happy, sad or disappointed.  I mean folks are hugging, crying, jumping up and down, and I look at them and try to figure out that emotion.  I'm not talking about people that have a loved one playing or have a financial interest in the outcome, just ordinary folks.  Anyone??[/quote]

There is very little that unites people anymore. Sports teams are one of those things -- it brings people together across races and social, economic and political divides. Anything that encourages people who otherwise might scream at each other on the internets to find common ground is a good thing, IMHO.

This is a really good point.  We are an increasingly divided society - politics, religion, SES, you name it.  But I will high five anyone who is excited about the Mets, I don't; care who they voted for.

Eff those Phillies phans, though.  [/quote]

Hell yes! *gives virtual high five*[/quote]
