It's not hockey, but yeah, I'm around here as (due to a confluence of accidents) a lifelong Braves fan. There's the frustration of umpteen playoff collapses over the last quarter-century; they're currently up 2-0 in the NLCS and I'm mostly just wondering how they're gonna screw it up this time. Moreover, though, seeing my team actually get past the first round for a change has come at a cost of seeing that damn Chop, which I hate, come under even greater scrutiny nationally. It sucks to feel embarrassed by thousands of people in one place doing something I find odious even as we very much want the same result on the field. I'll be off-the-charts thrilled if they buck their October woes and somehow win six more games, but I'll have to put out of my mind the fact that many of my fellow fans wouldn't hesitate to call me a libtard beta cuck or whatever. You make your own peace with it and that's all you can do.

As an A’s fan, I felt this. Now excuse me, I’m gonna go cry.
