All aboard the bandvvagon By Steve Gowgns The Arbiter

Is it just me, or do people across the country seem to sud- denly become "baseball fans" around this time of year? Most of you can relate and know what I'm talking about. Chances are many of these kinds of people that I'm describing are read- ing this right now. It's October, which can only mean one thing to people who know baseball; it's the playoffs. But many people completely forget about the months of work that go into building the drama and excitement that we experience throughout this final month .. The beginning of a new year starts and for about two weeks these fans keep up with the scores and highlights, but then go into hibernation for six months until the field is narrowed from the 30 regular season teams to eight of the best teams in the league that are competing in the playoffs. - Could it be that the season is too long? Is It not possible to withstand the marathon of games from April to September that makes October what it is? Think about it, would the play- offs be as exciting if each team played a couple of times and then were immediately thrust into post-season? Of course not, so why do people feel the only way they can support a team is in the last few weeks of the year? The fact is, these fans not only defy what the great American pastime is all about, but also in turn, give a bad name to the dedicated fans who remain loyal to a team Quarterback Ryan Dinwiddie leaves one Golden Hurricane flat on his face and prepares to blow by another throughout the year. It's the everyday fan that sees a team during last Saturday's game. This week the Broncos hit the rood to take on Fresno State. through thick and thin, through slumps and injury, through loss; just for the pure enjoyment of being a part of something. These are the fans that make sports great. These are the fans that should be put on a pedestal and exalted so others can model after them. "Bandwagon" or "fair-weather" fans, however, should be shunned and cast away to an island never to be heard from Broncos face No.8 again. It's these fans that once only the winning teams are left standing from a long and vigorous season, latch onto the one they feel gives them the best chance of being a winner too. Well, here's a news flash; it could be possible that they're a bigger loser then the team that finished last in the season. At Fresno State on ESPN least the players didn't say screw it in the middle of the year to abandon their team once they raalized they had no chance, Fresno State scores a lot of only to change sides and play for a contending team, like national television with noth- of his own.
