People deal with things differently, I used to have like $240,000 in hoop cash and I had that much from betting against Minnesota teams, did I want to see my favorite teams lose? Of course not but hey this way I got something aside from just the pain of losing.
You are right I can be very critical a perfect example is Joe Mauer, nobody tore on him like I did and I believe I had good reason too, the guy is by far the highest paid player in the history of our team and he did absolutely nothing when we needed him, he wasn't a leader and didn't deserve the contract he got, maybe Kirby spoiled me I don't know but by the end I couldn't stand Mauer, I still rooted for him to do well but I don't believe his name should be listed in the top 10 Twins players of all time, I know almost everyone will disagree but 2,000 slap singles to left doesn't a great player make.
I do the same thing but with real money!!
Come playoff time I’ll be pounding the Yanks. And yes, I’ll be hoping that for once I actually lose money!
And Mauer rules!
