This is mostly for So. Cal folks. Be honest....how many of you are Angels faithfuls and how many of you started to represent and call them your team as soon as they hit the playoffs?

*sigh* again. The Angels were my team ever since 1995, when i moved down from Sunnyvale to Orange County. I had to stick with them through the J.T. Snow trading, Jim Edmonds trading, Chuck Finley trading, the Mo Vaughn bomb, and i went to several games where the visiting team's fans outnumbered us angels fans. I'm NOT a bandwagon jumper, and if the Mighty Ducks ever get good I assume I'll be called one too (although they really still suck but hey there's nothing else to do but hop on over to the Pond sometimes)

Lakers too! everybody's accusing everybody else of being a laker bandwagon jumper, but no, i was a fan ever since vlade divac, nick van exel, eddie jones, elden campbell days (sedale threatt and some others too ;))

Who cares if the Angels win, it's still baseball. Being the best MLB team is like being the prettiest cafeteria lady, it's not saying much. Baseball is to professional sports what America Online is to ISPs.

To all you Angels faithfuls and those being truthful, more power to you. I'm glad to see that there are still a few of you running around. It looks like most of the bandwagon folk (I know there are some out there) are staying away from this topic....

I think its great to see the Angels in the World Series and playing so well.

I am a *cough* METS *cough* fan, but its great to see a WS without the Yankees for a change ;)

I have been an angels fan since Jim Abbot pitched for them. I got a baseball signed by him. It was awesome seeing a one handed player not only sign a baseball, but pitch. and Pitch well.

I am still a Chicago fan. go Cubs and Sox!

Been an Angels fan for quite a while...I'm not really a diehard fan....but didn't bash them either.

Seeing them collapse to the Mariners a few years back and watching a documentary about that 1986 team really made me feel sorry for the team. I really thought that bringing Mo Vaughn in would of helped a lot. Oh well, it is all good now. :)

I've lived in Orange County (Irvine) for 11 years now, and I've been an Angels fan the whole time :) I just feel really good for guys like Tim Salmon and Garrett Anderson, who have been such great players for so long, and now they are showcasing their skills on the biggest stage of them all. Go Angels! :D And I grew up in Pasadena (right next to LA), so it'll be great when the Angels defeat the hated Giants :) I'm sure all true Dodgers fans are rooting for the Angels!!!

Go Angels!!!

I wand the damn angels to lose....no real reason, but I want the Giants to win....and no it isn't because I think Bonds deserves a title.

I thought Randy Johnson deserved a title, but not Bonds. For years he didn't get along with the media, his team, and nobody really liked him, except he could hit homers. He hits 73 in 1 year, and then the media is all over him and glorifying him and everybody loves Bonds now?
