Reasons I am enjoying this season

[jctwins]

This isn't sarcasm, but treat it how you'd like.

I am a long time STH. I always like the fair weather fan only cycles when there are no lines at the ballpark, and the texting teenagers aren't at the games.

We might get a whole season of real fans only at the games.

I also enjoy watching baseball closer to a level as my youth kids, as they actually have a chance to learn more about what not to do. 

Laughing about stuff like pitchers chucking balls over the first baseman's head is nearly as entertaining as losing 3-1. 

Knowing they are going to hit a hard bottom only makes the next wave of ownership and management that much more fun to look forward to.

Seeing professional players get really frustrated brings a satisfaction to me.

What other reasons can we find to enjoy the flaming pile of dog ****?

People being up-in-arms (legs) over pants

I still have high hopes on Wallner breaking out as a slugger. He swings the bat so GD hard, the HRs will come in bunches for him. 

Buxton and Correa won’t be this bad the whole season. 

I have minimal complaints about the pitching. Once we stop pretending Paddack is a starter and call up one of the AAA starters I’ll be even more positive about that group.

The starters have been, and will be, good for the most part. I'm somewhat encouraged by Julien....

I'll admit the whites look better with the City Connect jerseys. I just think it's funny the FO and socials team were like, 

"We won't give you a TV deal or viable free agent signings, but can we interest you in some white pants?"

I'm disappointed to see optimism messing up my thread. This is about embracing reasons to enjoy a terrible season that will not end and only get worse before it gets better.

Apologies! I enjoy the tone of this website. Especially game threads!
