It also shows how classless the Padres' fans are. Instead of talking about your chances in the World Series and about baseball, you decide instead to rub in something that you personally have absolutely no control over and doesn't make you any better than anyone else. Of course, maybe you don't know anything about baseball so you couldn't talk about that anyway. The Padres won all their home games and the Cubs won all of theirs. That doesn't sound too conclusive to me. I compliment the Padres on playing well and winning the pennant (rather than the Cubs losing it). I DON'T compliment the Padres' fans who don't understand that it hurts to lose (and especially after being up 2-0). My World Series prediction: Tigers (in 5 or 6)
