Title: Compulsion

August 07, 2005 | 10:09pm

Seattle Sounders (Timbers' evil arch rival) fans recently informed Timbers fans that we're all a bunch of pathetic losers because we supposedly spend all our time talking about and hating Seattle fans. "We don't talk about you guys all the time. We could care less about you," they told us.

It was amusing, like being hissed at by a kitten. Seattle fans know we talk about them because they lurk on our message boards and read our posts. Sometimes they post bait threads on their boards trying to get Timbers fans to respond. Then they post to our board that we're pathetic because we talk about them and that they could care less about us. Its odd when people make an effort to tell you they don't care about you. If Seattle fans could really care less, they should shut up and get off our message board.

I know its juvenile, but sometimes that's fun. Case in point. Timbers fans have jokingly been throwing around the phrase 'so what if we suck' due to the Timbers lack of wins. And since Seattle fans could care less about us, they jumped on the phrase and came up with their own taunting version: 'at least we win'. Leading up to today's game, they posted that to our boards countless times. At least we win, at least we win, over and over.

It was irritating, kinda made my blood boil, which is what they wanted, but they couldn't enjoy it for long seeing as we beat them tonight. Portland Timbers 1 Seattle Sounders 0. I cackled maniacally all the way home from the game. Let's see, how was that again, Seattle? At least you what? Not surprisingly, Seattle fans have suddenly developed laryngitis. Buwahaha!

Ah, it's so much fun being childish sometimes. Keeps me young and petty. Just ask Ross. He has to deal with my 'youngness' all the time.
