Okay, so Mat Latos and his one "t" have decided to start signing "I Hate SF" on baseballs for charity, and Giants fans are upset.
Not only do I think we should not care, but we should embrace it. In fact, if you don't think this whole Mat Latos baseball graffiti stunt is absolutely delicious, you are not a good fan, don't care about the Giants and hate apple pie.
Cleveland Brown great Jim Brown said, "act like you've been here before." He's talking to us, as fans of the World Champion San Francisco Giants. While it's true that none of us have been here before, it doesn't prevent us from wearing this World Champion stuff. If we get throw a tantrum whenever a player, team, or fan base reacts to us, we just come off as bratty fans who want their trophy but don't want to pay for it.
Did you all forget that we're flying a plane with a World Championship banner over Dodgers Stadium on opening day? Being champs has consequences and living through them should just be reminders of how awesome it is to be on top.
Plus it's good for the rivalry. The NL West has been a laughingstock of the MLB for too long. A few more feuds like this and it'll become a guilty pleasure reality show.
So don't be upset. Own it!
