the Pittsburgh Pirates are actually winning for the first time in my life time and im pretty stoked. anyone else glad to see them winning?

not sure if anyone on ns even watches baseball. i usually dont watch until October but, with the pirates doing well its actually fun to watch.

I only got to see them once this year as I don't live in Western PA anymore. They won a good game, but it was the game where Grilli got hurt, so it was bittersweet.

Just because its more fun to watch when they win doesn't not mean I don't support them when they lose.

In my lifetime, along with going to several other citites, I've made 4 trips to Pittsburgh to see the Cardinals play the Pirates. The first three trips were in 2004, 2005 and 2007, and the most recent being last weekend.  The stands were barely half-full at most of the earlier games I've gone to, but last weekend the games were nearly sold out. 

I'm not saying you don't support them when they lose, but the city sure as hell doesn't.
