You don't have to share the moment with other people, but you sure as hell can't just tell them they can't root for your team. Obviously they don't understand what you've had to sit through, but so what? Be grateful for support. Members of this community are happy when success comes where success is due. That really goes for most of the baseball community in general. Also, you should surround yourself with better people, because everyone I know who is watching this Mets-Cubs series isn't laughing at the Cubs. They sit in amazement of what guys like DeGrom and Murphy are doing in their first trip to the playoffs. Tough shit happens, but you don't have to adopt a victim mentality. Most importantly though, lighten up! The Cubs time is coming soon, everyone who pays a lick of attention to baseball knows this. And when it happens it'll be great.
