Psychoanalyze me
Why do I find ALW stans so cringe?
I understand she’s the winningest pickleball pro of all time. I recognize that she hits the ball and plays the game in a way that is unmatched. Of course she is very impressive.
But I just can’t help but root against her.
Her logo is so corny…
Her parents look like caricatures of rich people…
A story line in which a young(er) up-and-comer like Kiora Kunimoto or an “old” dark horse like Brooke Buckner beats her is just so enticing and way more interesting than seeing her win over and over and over.
I just can’t wrap my head around why people are still cheering for her to win.
Does anyone feel the same way? Or am I just old and cynical?
Help me understand the mindset of an ALW fan and/or explain what is wrong about my mindset.
