A noble experiment though it was, “Campaign Cheer” failed in its quest to persuade the faithful at Citizens Bank Park to refrain from making all but the most supportive noises. The urge to boo Jimmy Rollins was too great to resist, and watching the shortstop go hitless again did little to soothe the savage beasts.

“If they want to boo me, that’s fine. Boo me. Just keep it off everyone else. . . . You had some cheers, you had some boos. Like I said, when you get the win, they’ll cheer you.”

Cheering after a victory? Typical Philadelphia fan mentality. I’ll bet they’re unhappy when the team loses, too, the ungrateful bastards.

If nothing else, the outpouring of Rollins’ soul brought forth what may be my favorite J-Roll quote, ever:

That should be on a T-shirt, you say? Consider it done!
