So what’s cringe-worthy in your life?

Mine? My love of the Atlanta Braves. I love them, follow them, still watch them even though I’m on the west coast. I’ve got such great memories as a kid going to games when the stadium was empty and then later screaming at packed World Series games. But man, oh man, is this a painful, cringe-worthy love affair (especially the past couple of years). Being a Braves fan you develop this sickness in your stomach at some point in the game when you know it could be won, but that they’ll do something to lose it. You know it’s coming and cringe when it happens. The Atlanta Braves are my most cringe-worthy thing.

So what’s yours?
