The Angels Suck

@jsmcx @JabronieRamone Smh. He is absolutely ruining this franchise.. long time fans walking away all the time

@HalosAnonymous @JabronieRamone I'm with you, man. Angel fan since '79 when my dad brought me to the Angels/Brewers playoff series. Dad passed in '84. My son was born in '07. Grew up rooting for Mike Trout most of his life. After the comments from Arte at the beginning of the season, constant losing, done

To Arte Moreno, Perry Minasian, and the Angels Front Office, As a season ticket holder for years, having gone to Game 6 of the World Series in 2002 with my Dad, having lived through the winning years in the early 2000’s — going to 40+ games a season growing up, watching them win, watching them fight, creating countless memories of WINS.. Only to now be in my 12th consecutive year of losing is so embarrassing. I’m raising my two young sons and all I desperately want is for them to know what WINNING feels like. To come from victory. We live two miles away from the stadium now (have been for four years) — I’m living my CHILDHOOD DREAM!! I drive down the street and see the Big A. I go to the grocery store and see people wearing Angels’ gear. I walk into my sons’ room and see Angels memorabilia on the walls, bobble heads, their closets with Angels t-shirts. Rally Monkeys as their teddy bears.. but it feels empty and purposeless. I’ve now pivoted our perspective of Angels fandom to lessons for my kids of what it means to unconditionally love someone or something to where: YOU DON’T GIVE UP ON SOMETHING YOU LOVE!! But I REFUSE to subject them to lessons that some parents teach — that lesson of “Not everything is about winning. As long as you try your best! That’s all that matters!” NO. Bullshit. Life isn’t easy, and you’re going to need to work AS HARD AS YOU POSSIBLY CAN TO WIN! “There’s two types of people in the world: WINNERS & LOSERS. We are WINNERS.” With the Angels, all they know is losing.. disappointment.. frustration. They are going to games and hoping the Angels win, only to LOSE. My 5-year old was visibly saddened after another loss at the stadium. And I have to offer him a hot dog, or ignore my own disappointment in order to make it easier.. Thank GOD the Ducks are making a run in the playoffs this year. I had never been to a hockey game before — but my son asked me if we could go to a Ducks game after passing by the Honda center in late April asking “where are all of those people going?” “They’re going to see the Ducks” “Can we go see the Ducks?” The next week we went and saw the Ducks clinch the first round of the playoffs. It brought me to tears — seeing a team that I had never previously been invested in win a playoff series, while my Son who had also never seen a ducks game, jump up and down in excitement. It brought back memories and feelings of what it was like to feel VICTORY with my Dad as a young kid growing up. He told me he wants to learn how to ice skate.. and Now next to his Rally Monkey is a little “Wild Wing”. Not yet giving up on the Angels.. but this team is broken. Doesn’t want to win. And it starts with you, the owner, Arte Moreno, and the entire Front Office. You don’t seem to care about this team. And you don’t know the impact of what you’re doing.. You are killing an entire generation of Angels Baseball. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I hope this message is received in the spirit it was written: from someone who cares deeply about this team and wants to see the Angels become the organization the fans deserve. Sincerely, The Angels Suck - @HalosAnonymous

@DJMurphiK Idk. This team tends to step up against top tier teams though I have a feeling this year will be completely different. Might just get stomped out

@HalosAnonymous it’s gonna be so different this year the Dodgers are starting to wake up against the Giants. That means they’ll be fully awake by the time we play them tomorrow soriano will do the best he can, but I don’t see the angel bats getting more than one run tomorrow.

I hope the Angels are mentally preparing for our World Series tomorrow.

@SportsballGroyp @toxicducksfan Omg there he is

@HalosAnonymous @toxicducksfan He was asking for it

An abomination of an account.

@oldredink @toxicducksfan He kicked my fuckin dog

@toxicducksfan He's floated onto my tl a couple times, finally decided to block him right now

@HalosAnonymous Also I’m born and raised in Boise ID and have been an Angels fan since my birth through family. Truly can’t imagine driving past the A every day and having that feeling. You know it’s a failing franchise when the fans care more about the team than the owner

@HeteroAF @AnaheimDucks 😂

@HalosAnonymous @AnaheimDucks I blame Arte for the Ducks' playoff exit

@AnaheimDucks Thank you for showing me and boy what WINNING in Anaheim feels like. What the PLAYOFFS feel like. And Thanks to the Samueli’s for fostering a winning culture, and giving a fuck about the City of Anaheim. #FuckArteMoreno Looking forward to next season.

@TommyATL96 I don’t believe he is leaving until 2038. At least. And I think he’ll make it to age 92 so.. my boys would be adults by then. I can’t wait that long, only got so much time w my boys while their little ya know. But I respect that and agree with you 100% - I’m with you.

@HalosAnonymous I really wish I could root for the Angels but I gave up a few years ago. I tried to root for the Braves but I couldn’t. Arte is a bad owner and worse a shit person. He needs to sell and get someone who cares about the team, fans and city. I will be back day 1 when he is gone.

I hope the Ducks flags stay on at least another day. Driving around the city hearing my kids yell out “Daddy! DUCKS FLAG!” From the back seat and pointing.. has seared into a core memory. Gonna miss it big time.. 💯 crying. #FlyTogether

@_0xcy_ 😂🤣 you’re a damn fool bro

The Ducks are proof that Orange County is craving for a good team and a run in the playoffs. Fuck you, Arte Moreno. #FlyTogether #RepTheHalo

@athleticsfan_4 @AnaheimDucks Nah that would be fucked. The Samueli family does, and they’ve invested a shitton of their own money into the city

@HalosAnonymous @AnaheimDucks I’m not tapped into hockey but I moved to SoCal. Does arte own the ducks too or nah?

@mlbfollower Yeah - probably exactly like what he said x probably made them feel like “winning isn’t important”

@HalosAnonymous And how does that make the players feel when he made that comment about winning isn’t high on the list ? 🤦‍♂️

@GregHeimann 100,000% — POS authoritarian, self-righteous prick

@HalosAnonymous The writing was on the wall when they created the greatest team on paper in 2012 and ended wth a 50-50 season. It was already going downhill before that point and that sealed their fate for the years that followed. Arte is a POS and has driven the franchise into the ground.

@ClaytonManningg @MLB Lmaoooo

@MLB Dodger fans were cheering. They thought that was Ohtani 😂

JUNG HOO LEE INSIDE-THE-PARK HOME RUN! TIE GAME!

@dodgevadar 😂😂😂 If only you knew how I wrote this, you’d say that a little louder

@HalosAnonymous Don’t be a pussy

Fuck yeah. Proud of this team for sure.. #Winning

As terrible as this game was.. I hope the Ducks get a standing O for the run.

@sawicki_joshua Exactly. It is WILD that a WHOLE generation doesn’t know what winning is in Anaheim

@HalosAnonymous Great Affective letter! Going to a hockey game for the first time is magical. I will never forget the first time I went to one. The Ducks are going to be a great team for 10+ years the way this team is built. If Angels fans all experienced what winning is, Arte, have no team.
