I remember the sadness like it was yesterday I remember yelling, "THIS IS WHAT YOU GET, THIS I WHAT YOU GET FOR PUTTING sOs ON THE SECOND STREAM!"

This is for sure, I am JD's fan, so maybe I am remembering wrong, but after JD won his semifinal, I think the only person that was cheering for sOs was probably his mom I wanted them both to lose. Does that count? Well, you weren't actually cheering for sOs, so I don't think so

Omg that interviewer is just sad, its his job to make Trap answer questions and try and hype the crowd. Just asking Trap what he could say to hype the crowd... "I don't know how to do my job, please do it for me" >_>

"despite the mlg win, the folks here dont know you. what so you tell them?"

Also I think casters should remain mostly neutral and not cast a game from just one players perspective (cheering when he does something good and saying OH NO if something bad happens). I actually see that quite often. i think it doesnt matter even slightly and if it bothers you then youre choosing to be bothered

I was cheering for Bomber and Maru to get up on stage and say "April fools guys!" then kill sOs and Jaedong with katanas and play an epic TvT finals. I still don't get how Dear and Maru lost to Jaedong

I think it matters and if it doesn't bother you even slightly then you are choosing to ignore it.
