People that root for a team they have no affiliation with

[CoolStoryBro]

I grew up in Cuse and went to SU for school and there was always that person growing up who would wear Boston or Duke shit to get attention or to be "different from the pack". I found on those people didn't even know who the starting lineup was anyway. I am a Yankees fan, Giants, I am a. NY guy through and through.

It's not like you had to have gone to that specific school to be a true fan, but for fans that jump on the wagon or are a fan of somewhere else just to be different those people can blow me, no respect for t shirt fans.

I.E. - You didn't attend that school. You weren't born and raised in their vicinity. Your children do not attend that school.

You people....that's right YOU PEOPLE...you irk me to no end.

This applies to pro sports as well.

I guess I irk you.........AND I FREAKING LOVE IT

 

[bksballer89]

I don't see the problem with it.. So just because I was born and raised on Long Island I AUTOMATICALLY should root for all teams around the area?

Tell me about it....Dumbest shit I ever heard of. Why should we let our location determine what team we root for? I will root for whoever the hell I feel like rooting for and nothing will ever change that

Because I was born in Cincinnati and I'm jealous.

Shut up moron, don't make us southwestern Ohioans look bad!

Cleveland has won a playoff series and a title since the last time Cincy has.

Cincy doesn't win shit.

Why is this a problem for you?

Personally, I don't care why someone roots for their teams as long as they stick to their teams and don't jump off the bandwagon when times get tough.

Lol, well, for me, I became a Steeler fan as a result of learning the game while watching with my Grandfather, a diehard Steeler fan since the OLD days (1940's). I've lived in Ohio since I was 10, but from age 7-10 I ONLY watched Pittsburgh with my Gramps (on the weekends I would be at my grandparents in the fall), been a diehard ever since..my Mom's side of the fam is from WV.

Exactly this is my philosophy. As long as you stay true to your team and remain loyal not only through the good times but though the bad times as well, you're a true fan in my book

The Bengals weren't even in existence. I think you have a legitimate pass.

 

[Ojb81]

Oh, and I'm 33, so I watching games when Pittsburgh had Bubby Brister at QB, so it's impossible for me to ever have been a bandwagoneer

LOL...Heat and Yankees?

Just stop. What are you? 12?

33 here too. I'll see your Brister and raise you an Akili.

But Cincy isn't fighting from the bottom up every year and lets face it, the division they play in isnt the easiest in the NFL!!!

Bubby Brister..... Shit, Cliff Stout!!!!

Everyone has a legitimate pass because you have to be a special kind of retard to give the tiniest bit of a shit why someone roots for their team.

No sir.

You're the one rooting for a school you didn't attend
