I don't get it. How can anyone be a fan of a team.? It's ever revolving. Changes made every year. I can (somewhat) see being a "fan" of a person. I do , Clint Eastwood but a team, I just cant fathom it. There is an outdoors forum based on North Dakota I'm on. It's almost mandatory to bash a Minnesota coming There to hunt/fish but most seem to LOVE our Vikings So, why do some have an infatuation with a (team)?
swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo
You have to remember that 1 out of 3 Democratic Voters is just as dumb as the other two.

First you have to be a fan of something I.e. football, baseball, basketball, college affiliation, etc. Then one usually (except for bandwagoners) gets accustomed to a certain team at an early age. Once that happens, it's over, like family....I can make fun of my team, but you better not! Lol. And yes, like said, things tend to be passed down in the family.
Act like a blank, get treated like a blank. Insert your own blank!

You don't have to be a fan any sports organization, especially a sports team that is all about making money off you.

There's fans and then there's fanatics. Yuge difference. Like the Tom Brady guys........ And Bruins too

Seriously. I thought Georgia was the Bulldogs. They're doing very well though. 8th generation Alabama born and bred. Only here in Georgia because these folks in Atlanta will pay me to trap problems.

When I was younger I was all in for the jets/knicks/rangers. After I grew up that was the end of that stuff for me.

I don't support any professional teams. I would much prefer to watch my favorite D2 college or my local high school. Both men's and women's teams. They need me support my than a bunch of millionaires. I don't understand the fantasy football thing. None of my fantasies include a bunch of big, sweaty guys.
ergo, bibamus.
