We don't grade on a curve.
We don't give participation ribbons.
We don't chime in with "Excellent marksmenship, sir!" when the bullet splits the foot.
We don't rush out to buy Alex Verdugo jerseys when Mookie Betts is traded away by one of the richest franchises for budgetary reasons.
We expect this band to do its best to live up to the ideals and standards it has bragging about having.
Your comments about complaining being inwardly damaging are accurate, though. I will not argue against the unhealthy affects of negative thinking. But Christ, with everything that's currently going on in Trumpistan, bitching about and mocking the Robin$on$ is a buoyant respite.
