I am a lifelong Pirates fan but I am waiting for the second half slump. Being a Pirate fan is pretty stress free since the early 90's - they are never in contention and every game they actually won seemed like a cause for celebration. I nearly developed an ulcer as a kid during the 79 series. Watching them fold in the playoffs in the 90's was really frustrating too. The past 20 years have been good - they have a great ballpark, going to a game there is a really cool experience.
