do a little bit of what a lot of men do boast and brag when your on top and take the beating when your not that's the beauty of competition
Like you said, though, 'a lot of men', meaning... not ALL men. Not all sports fans (men or women) do the whole 'boast and brag whenyou're on top.' And even those that do, they do it differently.
Like I said about the Red Sox game we came back to win, with Papelbon having the lead and 2 outs and a 2-strike count on THREE consecutive Angels, I was HYPEDat work, running around screaming "TWO OUT BASEBALL, BABY!! LET'S GOO! TWO OUT BASEBALL, SON!!!"
Sure, that's 'boast and brag when you're on top,' so yeah, I do it. But I do it differently. I never said a word about how terrible the Red Soxare, how annoying/bandwagon/stupid/whatever their fans are. None of that.
And someone else, they wouldn't even go around hooting and hollering like I was.
So there's all kinds of differences in the world of sports fans, but just like every facet of life where there are differences in individuals (which isEVERY facet of life), respect is necessary.
Calling out Angels fans for disappearing without remembering that there aren't even that many of us in the first place... I mean, why even bother?Celebrate your team; don't worry about mine. Drink it up with fans of your team; leave the other team's fans alone. What do they have to do with thecelebration going on with you and your team's fans? Nothing.
Know what I mean?
