now i have to agree that there are some Halls fans that are annoying, but heck i remember being on the field and hearing those chants and loud yells and im telling you...it pumps you up!!! i mean some fans want to yell stuff that is totally off and stupid and you start thinkign about it at the plate and you start laughin and strike out (lol jk) but seriously its a good thing and there's not a dern thing wrong with it. im not jumping on this wagon because im from Halls, i'm saying this about anyone. i was voted most school spirit and ive got kicked out of basketball games and threatened at football games for being loud and stupid but when i talk to the boys and speaking for myself as an "ex-high school" athlete, it does something for you. it cant be taken away and if it does then the game nor any other sport in high school will be AS fun. though you see guys workign their tail-ends off trying to be the best player they can be to earn scholarships and whatever else in high school....take away what makes the game fun besides the simple joy of playing the game itself and you've got nothing. these boys are 14-18 years old. they're entitled to goof off and have fun and when the fans back them and have some fun with them its just all that much better. baseball is as fun as you make it...if you think working at it 24/7 with no laughs or grins or "side-note" happiness then so be it, but count how many 14-18 year olds that dont like to have fine WHILE taking the game serious.
