It’s true. At the end of the day, the San Francisco Giants Baseball Club is simply a business. We have deluded ourselves into rooting for a business. We have surrendered irretrievable time and real human emotions to a business. The best version of being a fan of the team, then, is rooting for the business.
The beauty of being a business is that it has no emotions. That’s why the team’s dispassionate release of Renel Brooks-Moon was only about the money, because business is just money. We’re rooting for money. Specifically, money that belongs to those who have financially invested in the team.
