I've followed the board off and on over the past few years. I've noticed that shift as well lately. Here is my take: Initially fans from other teams listened to X fans bash UD constantly and gave them the benefit of doubt. I think over the past few years they realize how annoying X fans are and are coming to understand that MAYBE it's not UD, it's X and their fans that are the problem.
Of course our success has something to do with it as well. X fans always said it was Archie, not UD. One of the reasons I want AG to be successful is to take that argument away from X fans. Yes, I absolutely want to be in the BE. If no other reason than to play X twice a season and start kicking the snot out of them like we did in decades past.
