|  So Jimmy Rollins wanted to call us Front runners...
I guess he thought he would be O.k saying it on the west coast. Well I personally spent the extra dough yesterday to sit behind home plate to Heckle him.
Every time he came up to bat I held this sign up and told him I am his #1 Front Runner and that I only like him when he is good. He definitely saw this to and put his head down right away. All the padres fans were confused to say the least. 
I also got to meet Hamels and his family after the game Friday, and last night. They are all really nice people, the best part about Cole is the fact he acts like your average Joe, and didn't act like he knows he is good. He went out of his way to talk my wife and I.

The man also has a point. | So booing the players when they play like shit is considered "Front runners?" I dunno if you heard but Jroll also said "In St Louis they support their team" As though we don't. We still show up when they are losing IN PHILADELPHIA gear. Hell we had the Padres stadium completely overtaken with Philadelphia fans and we still cheered our freaking hearts out when we lost 8-3. If that is being a front runner, or not supporting your team, Well I BOO you as well.
This is Philadelphia, and this has been Philadelphia for as long as I can remember, Rollins might have a point if we just stopped watching them all together when they lose but we don't we boo when they play like shit when they should be playing better just like... Well whatya know, the reigning MVP. He has been here long enough. Screw Him, he can go to STL where they don't show up AT ALL when they aren't so hot either. Maybe he wont be boo'd there.

JRoll lost all chance at being valid by using the word front runner. What he described is not a front runner.

I'm not talking about that, I'm talking about his thoughts on the fans... He is 100% correct... As much as were passionate about our sports, we also let our passion fuel our stupidity... Rollins has every right to say how he feels, because it shows he cares, and at times we as fans need to be put in our place too, we always wanna give shit to our athletes, but we cry and bitch when they give it back... Its part of the relationship between players and fans.. That's how it has to be.

I can't really understand calling any Philly fan a front-runner fan...
It's not like we are Boston/NE with a bunch of championships or anything like that. I go to Phillies games when they are blowing donkey dick and still cheer for them. I lost a lot of respect for JRoll

so did i front runner has nothing to do with booing the team when their losing. If we were front runners nobody would be there to boo when they were losing. Then when they ask him if he regrets what he says he goes not at all.
0-4 tonight and got booed
good
