Weak excuse.
That only means they are excited about it and want to show it. Nothing wrong with that.
You think Cubs fans are lining up on message boards to post how awesome their team is?
I guarantee that if the Cubs win a championship anytime soon, they will be all over the net.
No body cheers for a losing team, not even their own fans.
Just like when the Red Sox are losing, you dont see many people posting on the game thread.
