Poll

After 12 games, what is your outlook on the team and which camp would you consider yourself to be in?

Legion of Doom: Every loss tears at my very soul and makes me question the sanity of being a Nats fan
Sunshine Squad: Gee, it's not about wins and losses. It's about getting better as a team.
Can't we just get along as Nats fans?

Yeah, but they've got the fingernails, and the chalkboard too.

We're beating the LoD where it counts, baby. See the poll above.

I hope this is meant to be ironic - that poll is completely tongue-in-cheek :lol:

Squeaky wheel gets the oil.  Besides, those of you who whine about them easily make at least twice as much grating noise.

Seeing as how I switch from doom and gloom to shiny happy people at the drop of a hat, I guess I'm GoinFU (don't forget the "united")

I'd like to petition for my own group - "make fun of everyone and :stir: :poke: :stir: :poke: "

I'm neutral, but I'm sympathetic toward the shiners. If forced to choose, I'd be a shiner.

Just be proud to be a 'shiner.

'Shiners don't get stomachaches. They don't say things like "Game" after a scoreless first half inning. They don't throw things at their TVs. They look forward to balmy Spring Training weather in Viera. They don't mind April chill or August heat. They don't act like everyone has to be flawless. They appreciate athletic endeavor, knowing that they could never do in a million years what those they are slamming do every day. They understand that Davey, Mike, and even Jim, have better baseball minds than they do. They understand that more women belong in the BWT (but not all, oh no, not all). They mind fact, but happily.

That's my 'Shiner manifesto.

Oh yes, I know, believe me.  I wouldn't say that in a room full of Texans, they love that nasty stuff.  (I lived in Texas for 2 years)

I love dark beers and have had many fine bocks, but this one seems vastly overrated.  Not unlike Rolling Rock in that regard.

Well, then, I'll be honest: I can't stand the stuff. My parents drink pretty much nothing but Shiner and Beck's and living at home while trying to find employment is starting to get to me...

At least until they return from the bar.

but they do blame their team's misfortune on inanimate objects that can be thrown aside, like unlucky hats.

I'll always complain about weather when it is warmer than Maine.

not that they can't be questioned or prodded.

I'm told that you're the leader of the SsS. Post a picture and/or a description and I shall make a minifig of you to battle against minifig Spider.
