We have had a rough season. Many injuries, certain players slumping at the wrong time. It sucks, expectations were high this year. This is the last year in D.C. for some of our core players.

I remember a time we trailed by 9... http://www.wnff.net/index.php?topic=36635.0

We had less than a 5% chance to comeback. It started with a single run and grew. We get Stras, Doo, and KH back... Anything is possible.

There are good teams in from of us in the Division and Wild Card. We have 41 games left against professional baseball teams.

LET'S GO BEAT THEM!!!

Nice motivational speech... given to a bunch of Internet jackoffs who can’t do anything to actually win games.

Not true. You have it within you - all of you - to get a tire iron and go full on Tonya Harding mode. The opposition won't know who hit them, but they'll know what shattered kneecaps feel like.

And if we don't make up any games we could just throw hard at other teams' promising, young players.

You're right.

We can't do anything about it.

But why is being a miserable fan better? Has it giving anyone here less heartbreak? Is having the attitude of the season is over help anyone?

We are lying if we think it has.

We are fans of our Washington Nationals!!! It hurts just the same when we get walked off it we believe in this team or not.

Lets be fans again. All of us.

We, the WNFF, and any other fans should go to the game tomorrow. We should make signs and greet the team when they get to the stadium.

And our signs should say "We still believe in this team!"

We have nothing to lose by doing this. Max is pitching right? They are giving away shirts right?

Lets be fans again.

Even if it only increases our teams chances by .001%... It's Werth it!

Elvir and Todd, you both said you played. Does fan support help at all? Tell us please!

1. I'm not trolling.

2. It's you dumpster fires that need to reform.

What has the negative Natitude got you?

spidernat · « **Reply #24 on:** August 16, 2018, 03:11:10 pm »

I don't give a freak how you react to the Nationals, whether negative or positive, the result will not be any different. This team is done.
