[The God of Runs]

is a lot higher when the team loses. I wish this wasn't the case.

[RallyMo]

Yes, to a point, but when the team continues losing like they are it will eventually wear off.

 

Disinterest will set in.

 

Apathy will be the norm.

 

The board will atrophy.

The libs are way less libby these days so, I kind of, sort of disagree with you here.

Except for AO. He's like the Energizer Bunny of ranting about how bad the Angels are.

Back in the day, old bulletin boards were most active during losing seasons. It's a fact. 

 

Misery loves company and fans need a place to both vent and laugh. 

[Ohtaniland]

Our team may be failing but the one thing that will never fail is the great camaraderie we have here at @ngelswin.

[gotbeer]

Thank god Chuck has other sections of the forum more interesting now.  Like the NHL.......I mean hangout forum.  

[ScottT]

Disagree.  I get nothing out of the bitching, berating, whining, and utter nonsense that takes over message boards... the stadium (until people start leaving)... Twitter and Facebook.

People post new threads on the same things every time there is a loss. Too much going on.

That's why RoyalsToilet.com is so popular, right?

The best part beyond AngelsSuck.com talk is that we can discuss so many other topics across all our other forums.

[T.G.]

I actually don't feel like posting when the Angels are losing.  The conversations are basically the same from thread to thread and there's way too many personal attacks.  

 

I'd rather just focus on the game day predictions...

[nate]

There is nothing enjoyable about it.  But with the serial losing that has gone on the last couple years the amount of complaining and blaming is at an all time high, which is to be expected.

 

When winning happens there is guarded optimism but nothing more.  Will take quite a bit of winning to get people on a happier path.

 

At least we don't have to sit there and complain about the lineups every day anymore.

the good ol' days....

[STLCardinalsFan]

I just don't even know what to say. I never thought the Angels would be just a few games above the AAstros. 

 

I mean at least you guys haven't hit Cubs low yet...on their forums they always talk about getting together and drinking Kool-Aid or something involving bungee jumping off bridges without the bungees. 

 

So at least you guys have that going for you.

I don't find the site enjoyable when we are losing.  Hate all the negativity.  I scan the main forum but rarely get involved these days.

I hear you. But at the same time, there's always less activity when they're winning (traditionally).

So, put topics on the table and engage more when the club is doing well. We could all use more optimism and cheer in the midst of the pain and sorrow.

[Willy J.]

Finding, reading, and posting on this site has been pretty much the only enjoyment I've gotten from Angel baseball this year so far. .

[Bruce Nye]

From Rancho Penisquitos to the Canadian border, I....pause.....will put topics on the table.  The ladies' line is open.

[Angel Oracle]

Down that, firefighter!

Do I have to dial the phone for you?

I am bleeping brilliant!

Some threads I totally avoid because they degenerate into name calling and irrelevant crap.

Chuck you do know that what you are suggesting is nonsense, right? Until the team is playing well and consistently winning up to peoples expectations it is next to impossible to post anything optimistic without the thread being derailed immediately or being called an apologist. It's a fact that this community loves to show up to bitch and complain. I totally get the frustration but those people now have a much bigger voice on here then they once did and that doesn't make your site better, just busier.

[RallyMo]

People are complaining and it's more active because people more or less expect to win.

 

At some point if they keep it up, they'll expect to lose. It won't be so complaint worthy.

AAAAAMEN!!!

I am the answer man

I'm always right

Can you believe that?
