I originally stayed away to start the year because the presumed direction of the team with the prospect of Guerrero and Bichette leaving at season's end for nothing was just so depressing that I couldn't get enthused about baseball. But I watched and the contract signing at least meant this wasn't going to be a total downer.
But now I realize that the time I was watching and at least relatively content was in part driven by the fact that this place is unbearable when the slightest bad thing happens. It's not everyone. Hell, it's probably only 2 or 3 users that are the primary culprits. And it's not even "oh, you just don't want dissent or negativity." It's that I forgot how annoying it is watching certain people screech like toddlers throwing tantrums at every little thing, as if their moods only exist at extremes with no modulation.
So I guess I'm out for a while. It's a shame that I remember when these threads were fun even when the team actually was garbage and not over-reactionary "garbage" because that just makes it worse.
