Should the swag chain be used when the Padres are losing?

Kinda weak if you’re losing don’t you think?

Albert Long

I think they should I see it as a motivational tool

Philip J Muniz

No.. just like in football if you are losing by a lot and you score a touchdown you don’t go and do a celebration dance

Bernard Thompson

Anthony Avila

Always celebrate an achievement. I remember hearing Dan Fouts say, never let a loss get in the way of a good time. Or something to that effect.

Doug Veling

I was going to say no, but then again if there having fun there probably winning to. So as long as they continue to be successfull and there not losing like 10-0 I'm all game. Got to celebrate the successed because just way uncesfull at bats in baseball.

It’s not called the HR chain, like UMiami has the turnover chain. It’s a way to add flavor and something new to the game while hyping up a dugout. It should be reserved for special moments, not random achievements like a hit or HR.

Is a symbol of personal achievement not team success

Julian T

No strong feelings here, not when we're down 8-0 in the 9th and hit a solo homer

Bob Rauch

A thing that gaudy should only be used for winning

Harold

Love the swag chain. It helps keeping this club loose in the clubhouse and fun for the fans to watch. I agree with Alex, there needs to be some unwritten rules governing the swag, i.e. hitting a grand slam, after a win and during the post game interview, etc.

Keith Klipfel

Yes! Absolutely every home run... it will get the players pumped! But not for post game interview if we lose... Only when we win!

It's not a symbol of team success, so what's your point.
