It seems to me that message boards are a place where miserable people can come and be miserable with other miserable people. When the Nats sucked, there was plenty to whine and complain about. Now that the Nats have the best record in baseball, listening to people complain about them is just stupid and annoying
And for the rational, negative people - there's not much to complain about anymore really, so why post?
But I don't participate in Game Threads because I'm basically the Queen of the Damned when it comes game threads - we seem to lose when I participate - I'm superstitious
