Nats fans: Give some credit where credit is due



This past weekend the Baltimore Orioles swept the Minnesota Twins. The Twins are terrible and the O's may be terrible as well, however, the hate coming from Expos Nationals fans has been frustrating. I understand that you have always loved the Nationals since the Moises Alou days, but there is no need to talk about how the Orioles will lose 90 games.

But in all seriousness, cant you give credit when it's due? If you grew up in the DC area and you are older than 12, you most likely cheered for the Orioles at one time. How can you turn on them so easily? All of a sudden you hate them because a random team came town? Please do not use the argument that "the owner sucks", really? Really?

You think we don't know we're projected to be one of the worst teams ever? You think we don't know we started the season off last year the exact same way and tanked? But yet, we are winning these games and that is all that matters. We may stay consistent for the next 159 games OR we may lose 90 games but for right now, 3 games into the season, the Baltimore Orioles are 3-0 and we are damn proud of them.
