I mean no disrespect to real Boston fans who went their whole lives without a Championship and then got it and appreciated it. However, the city of Boston has become obnoxious and arrogant. The Sox and the Pats success has turned the New England area into a loathing fan base. Now that it's October, and the Red Sox are back in the postseason, get ready to gauge your eyes out.
The whole idea of a "fan nation" exists because Red Sox "fans" exist throughout the country. You know they are die hards too man. They watch all the games on TV and even have Direct TV Extra Innings Package so they never miss a pitch. They make yearly trips to Fenway and follow them when they come into their hometown. Wait! What do you mean they don't do that? They were their hats because it's fashionable and cheer for them because it's the cool thing to do.
Fan nations are ridiculous and became chic when the Red Sox were on there 2004 World Series Run. Sure some fan bases were considered fan nations before hand but the Red Sox or rather FOX popularized the term. Since the run, many fan bases have been quick to use the term nation when describing their fan bases. Nova Nation is pehaps the most annoying of these recent addition.
Most Red Sox fans suck. Bandwagon fans always suck, but the Red Sox fans that feel a level of entitlement are obnoxious. You are not the Yankees and you never will be. Living in Philadelphia, I hate New York and New Yorkers but here's to hoping they knock Red Sox Nation down one more time.
