He is against pretty much everything that a true fan believes.

Why do you get to decide what a "true fan" believes?

Because I am a fan, I do not base the players on my team's performance by their absolute stats, I base it on how I feel they are helping my team.

JOA has proved that he is a true stat guy, if a traditionally horrible player is on his team for a big contract, he would be against them even if they get "lucky" and have a great year. I would want a mod to appreciate every great season, and be able to understand why the fans are crazily inlove with a guy who has a "lucky" great season even though he sucks. I do not think JOA could do this, he has made a thread showing why "fanatics" cant be rational about their teams, and the definition of a fan or fanatic is that you are not rational.

I have to deal with bloggers of my favorite baseball team be unwilling to cheer for a guy whose career stats suck, I don't want a mod who wouldn't allow it.

WTF are you talking about? If he was a mod, he'd just be in there to make sure people don't call each other bitch and pussy.
