yea i think that sums it up nicely.

Sticking with your team thru thick n thin even tho they are doing terrible.
I consider someone to be loyal fan if they are well immersed in the stats and history of the franchise, and not just say they support the team for whatever reasons.
I agree. Its real tough when your team never wins though or even makes the playoffs once in a while.(Lions[FIRE MILLEN]) But I will always support.
SMH@ the Lions this weekend getting scraped 51-14 by the chargers,specially since I was at the game and it ended there chances of getting into the playoffs.
95% of the time, not a NTer.
yup....

Isn't he the same guy that was openly rooting against his St. Louis Cardinals because they were having a lackluster season, only to see them catch fire and win the World Series.
I agree with almost everything dude posted. Rock your teams gear and know your stuff, period. When a question is asked about your team, you should knowthe answer.Originally Posted by goldNboi7
THE COMPLETE D¡CKHEAD'S GUIDE 2 BEING A LOYAL FAN.
By goldNboi7 (AJ)-
A loyal fan sticks with his team thru championships and lottery picks, and supports them just as loudly. Lot of new Cowboys fans the past few years...not a good look. Where the hell were they when we was goin 5-11 every year? Its about the ride, not always the destination...
A true fan will at least wear his teams colors on gameday sometimes. (I do it all the time, but I realize some of yall can't do that 4 whatever reason.) He at least owns 1 hat/jersey/shirt of his team. This is not debatable.
A true fan will wear his jersey when his team lost (as long as they gave a solid effort). Anybody can support a winner. It takes commitment to wear a Cowboys jersey in the 2nd week of 2007. (Yes, I'm talking about that.)
You should only have 2 ask who a true fan's favorite team is ONE TIME. It should not be a different answer every year, or preferably any year. You pick a team, and you only really should change it 4 extenuating circumstances (they fold, move etc.)
A true fan knows that everybody on the street wearing the same jersey as him on gameday is his temporary family. Feel free to shout out support for your team at him. If he's a true fan, hell shout back. A true fan also knows that its aight 2 share a high-five with a complete stranger after a big play, or a (3 second, shoulder contact only!) man-hug after a big win.
He also knows that during a rivalry game, everyone wearing the opposite colors is fair game. Feel free to shout derisive remarks and profanity. If he's a true fan, hell shout it right back. Its all in fun...its one of the best parts of being a fan.
A true fan doesn't blindly support his team. He can recognize what they are doing right, and when they is *@@%%$* up. A true fan can criticize his team harshly, but only cuz they want tha best 4 them...not unlike raising a child.
A casual follower knows the starters on his team. A fan knows the backups. A true fan can tell you Patrick Crayton is our 3rd QB. A true fan knows the coach, coordinators, past coaches, and sometimes even their records. He knows the name of the stadium and if and when they're buliding a new one. He knows when and if they won championships, and prolly against what team.
2 close, a true fan always supports, and may even actually love his team. There is nothing wrong with that. (As long as you're not an Eagles/Skins fan.)
(Go Cowboys!)
I live amongst many bandwagon fools (miami, lakers, cubs) and it's always funny to see them bring up the past.
Wait, I almost missed this. Where in Oregon do you see bandwagon fans of those three teams? The exact ones in my sig. I know like 3 Miami fansin this state, and even fewer Cub fans. Who you talkin about mane?
