Angels#1Fan

I think wangin makes a small point here. The Angels have been much more successful than the Clippers have been but we (the Angels) have played second fiddle to the Dodgers just like the Clippers have played second fiddle to the Lakers only we've had the second seat much longer!

Tried some of that back in the 60's..at least I think I did.

I feel bad for Ohtanhi.  He is the real deal and was having a rookie year to remember.

We should be well conditioned to it by now. I know I am. Thank god 2002 happened

Imagine going through this for 52 years.

Ugh. Just ugh
It does get hard being an Angels fan

Let's see...
Rick Reichardt kidney problems, excellent closer Minnie Rojas paralyzed in auto accident, promising SS Mike Miley passing away in auto accident, Lyman Bostock murdered, bus crash in 1992, Nick Adenhart passing away from auto accident, once in generation player Pujols becoming just above average pretty quickly after coming here, Morales' freak injury derailing very good career, and now this plus others too numerous to mention!!!!     What other MLB franchise has gone through that much over the past 5+ decades?       

The Angels seem to have a problem with admitting to the severity of players injuries.

The team was just nuked, and the target was destroyed. 
I'll see them in the playoffs in about twenty years, if I live that long.

It's like someone or some thing has it in for this team.
I've just about had it...
 
 

So let me get this straight. Spring Training Ohtani has a Grade 1 UCL Sprain. Now he has a Grade 2 UCL Sprain. Anyone have any idea what comes after 2??
This is Facking horse shit. I am so Facking over this shit. 

Gad................ It figures! 
Go Halos anyway...........................

@$#BHQ@ #HG@$ETT$#^Y^$#^#$&$#^&Y%$&*%$&*%$&*%&*!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This will never end.    Since it's Ohtani, I just about GIVE UP!!!!!!!!

I'm normally pretty optimistic, you kind of have to be if you're an Angel fan for long, but this is just too much. I really think the Angels have some kind of curse on them. I'm mean really. How else can this crap keep happening over and over?
I'll be honest here, my fandom is shaken. This team in order to stay competitive MUST go out and prove to the fans that they are in it and get some real help..no more blowout patches and a wing and a prayer or betting on the come with shitty replacements.

Our recent history is to fill the spot with a blowout patch.
Don't hold your breath waiting for real help to come because it's not!

Unfortunately this was one of the risks the Angels took when we signed him because he had this problem last year in Japan and he missed a lot of the season. So now he's down again with it..it can't bode well for the future. His track record is now bad and this could easily turn into a recurring thing with TJ surgery around the corner.
It was fun while it lasted but I'm very pessimistic about this.

This is f**ked..how long before Simmons foot is amputated?

We get kicked in the nuts on a regular basis these days.
If it wasn't for bad luck, the Angels wouldn't have no luck at all.

They're dropping like flies.
Othani missed a lot of last season in Japan with this problem..it's not a new issue with him.
I'm betting TJ surgery is just around the corner.

Funny, I too often get blisters and ucl sprains confused.

Anyone that lived through Ryan's Angel career knows how many fans he drew to the park. When Ryan first came to the Angels the attendance was horrible on days that he didn't pitch but it was a different story when he did pitch.
Bavasi was an idiot..letting Ryan leave is one of the biggest blunders in ML history.

Maybe the most fake injury that’s ever occurred to anyone this side of Prince Fielder
