What are you talking about tb1. You completely missed the point. Cubs fans are the best example of tortured fans. The whole point is that past success brings expectations and entitlement. Nobody in San Francisco had any connection to a world champion baseball team. They can't look at past San Francisco teams and say look at when we were the best. They can't look at a time when their city had the best baseball team in the world. There's no emotional connection to the New York teams.

So just like fans in Houston, Dallas, Seattle, Tampa, DC, there is no connection to past championships that would "torture" fans like there is in Chicago and Cleveland.


Also I don't even know how you can argue this when you didn't even mention you were a fan until the Giants were in contention.
