Nationals @ Marlins, Game 1

[spidernat]

I don't do twitter but I think someone posted links to it at one point and I read some of the stupid crap they were posting. But that doesn't influence me in any way. I don't really care what fans say or even what players say. I care about results on the field. I don't like any team other than the Nationals. I dislike all other teams (some more than others NL east rivals and the AL east). I can't hate of team for taking care of business. It was the Nats that nutted up at the most crucial time.

Sorry, if i like the Cardinals

I respect the Cardinals; great history, players, fans, and organization, but like would be pushing it.   Braves and Phillies OTOH....

Went to the Wizards game so missed tonight's, good to see we continue our undefeated streak against teams outside the state of Georgia. Keep that up and we'll win 130+ games!

Keep up the good work.

Nice to see JZimm bounce back tonight.  Still wish we would concentrate on extending him rather than Strasburg.

What is your problem with the Cardinals?

I don't give a crap about that. I bet you wouldn't feel that way if the Nats had not bent over for them in the playoffs.

nope any team who's fan base feels like they personify the 'right way' and that their team is somehow better because of that (be it the old Oriole Way, the As fans with bean, or the cardinals fans with their crap) is annoying as hell. The fact that they beat us and the our announcer wants to felate them just makes it worse

It was a pleasant surprise that I could watch the Nats game down in the basement of Frederick Memorial Hospital's Sleep lab. First question I asked when shown to my room for the night, "May I turn on the television?" As the tech pasted electrical leads to my head I enjoyed the game and dropped off to sleep to the comforting sounds of Ray Knight's smiling voice. I dreamed of baseball.
