Because the Nats "fan base" is a joke, and the amount of shit they've talked after nothing more than a decent start this year has been hilarious.

Why are we a joke?

Because you barely exist. First place team in one of the most populous regions in the country and through 17 home games they've averaged 61.2% capacity, a number that was certainly skewed by Phillies fans who came down for that stupid "take back the park" weekend.

Served and shocked by Chad.

Not really. Using that logic he's basically saying we should stop rooting for our team cuz our fan base sucks? Grow up jesus christ.

That isn't what I said at all. The fan base is a joke because as soon as they won a few games they immediately started talking all kinds of shit when in actuality the team barely has fans. Your management felt the need to take back your own park.

Man, I'm just kidding. I don't care if the Nats have zero people in the ballpark for games. I just like to joke around about this. You should root for whoever you want.

I haven't talked any shit to anyone, I've just been rooting for my team so I'm not sure who you are specifically referring to or where all the hate is coming from. And of course the fan base sucks. They haven't even fucking been here for 10 years yet and in that time period we haven't had a winning record...would you expect it to be good? The intelligence of some people on here is just silly.

[RJ2kWJ]

Love the reasoning as to why we suck as a fan base.

You're one fan. I'm obviously not singling you out.

Fair enough

[trippinchad]

Good night for Rodriguez. Nice to see the bats flyin again after yesterday. I'm headin to the game sunday against the Orioles! pretty excited!

[trippinchad]

Frustrating loss tonight

[trippinchad]

I had a blast at the game today! Great seeing Strasburg hit that homerun

[jackisback24]

Funny story. I was in the Yankees thread and someone made a comment about Susan Waldman and it reminded me of a time I was listening to a local Boston Sports radio station called The Zone 1510 am. There was a woman named Debbie Robleski who was sort of a clueless woman who did flash updates. The Program Director had the genius idea to pair her with Eddie Andelman and a guy named Dave Jaggler to do a sports show. Debbie made a foolish comment one time and Dave called her out on it and seemed very annoyed being paired with her and Eddie had to calm him down and it was all very awkward. On a whim I looked up what Jaggler is up to these days and was surpised to see he's the radio voice for the Nationals. I'm sure he's happy he moved on to greener pastures. Seemed like an uptight dude on the radio but a good knowledge of sports and a good voice. Maybe he's calmed down, who knows?

[RJ2kWJ]

Alright outing from Gio so far.

Keep it up fellas.

[trippinchad]

Rodriguez needs to go. He just can't find the plate anymore he needs to go back to the minors and work some things out.

Great job by Gio as usual, another curly W...

[trippinchad]

Zimmerman in the 3 spot needs to be addressed too. He's just not hitting so far..I know he had that injury. Maybe move him down in the lineup a little till he gets his groove back.

[RJ2kWJ]

Bryce!...

Philly fans keep booing, he keeps hitting.

[RJ2kWJ]

Back in first! Now let's get that sweep tomorrow.

13-3 I believe? against the Phils since May 2011.

[trippinchad]

We looked great tonight!! Very excited.

[dmb_fn]

The Nats are looking good this year. They have been riddled with some injuries, but still seem to be able to be contenders. I am a Nats fan in IL. Look forward to the rest of the season, and what they do.

[RJ2kWJ]

Only ESPN would make Harper vs. Hamels it's own section on SportsCenter.

It's going to be a normal baseball game.

With hopefully Bryce cranking one out of the Bank.

[Roose13]

There will be no pitches thrown at anyone nor will the players even think about the incident. If anything, Washington will want to sweep Philly and Philly will want to not get swept and end a four-game skid. Harper/Hamels is only something ESPN would blow up for views.

It's like 11 of the last 12 or something like that. No bueno on this end.

[trippinchad]

Hamels is fucking good

[trippinchad]

Rodriguez gettin some pitches in..

[RJ2kWJ]

Damn!! Ahhh well. Won the series but wanted the sweep.

This Atlanta series should be fun.

Nothing wrong with 2 out of 3 to start the road trip.

[trippinchad]

Yeah Im fine with it. Rodriguez giving up a homer was shitty I was hoping he could have a good outing to get some confidence. Oh well, day off and then a big series in Atlanta! No better time for a rest.

[trippinchad]

Wearin my jersey tonight for support!
