Fake Redskins fans

I think it's rather funny seeing people come out of nowhere to start spouting their belief in how well the skins will do and how they've been rooting for them as long as they can remember. I know for me personally this year has been an awesome feeling after trying to be optimistic about the teams chances, even to a fault some would say, while some other people seem to find reason after reason not to believe in the future of this franchise and some just completely give up hope. I know I'll be praying my heart out at work while the game is going on and until the final whistle blows, I'll believe my team can pull out a win.

Funny how warpathers are poking fun at new warpath/forum members who have joined in the past few weeks.

Just because some of us have been in here posting messages for 3+ years, that makes us greater fans than those who joined the site a couple of weeks ago? This is the height of internet nerdiness!! We know nothing about those who joined recently. They could be just as die-hard redskins fans as the rest of us. If the moderators were so convinced that all the true fans were already warpath members, then why not just lock up the site and deny these trolls new memberships?

I for one welcome all those who have "crawled out of the woodwork" in recent days and weeks. We need more fans and supporters on here....certainly makes for more opinions, viewpoints and discussions.

Hail to the skins.

why does it matter? We should be happy they finally get the recognition they deserve.Just sit back and enjoy it was a long time coming.The more the merrier.

1982........enough said

Portis, Brunnel, and Eddie Ramsey:silly:

Just because I just joined the Warpath does not mean that I am a "bandwagon fan". I have been a fan for years, and am driving 15 hours to go to the game, Porterhouse are you making the trip? enjoy the game from your couch nuff said!

Been a Redskins fan since 1980 and haven't regretted it since. Yeah, you can't say much about those who are just now joining the forum. It's those who talk crap about the team and once they make the playoffs, they get the "I knew they could do it all along" attitude that burns me up.

Damn, that was harsh Babe.

I have no problem with new fans or anyone new who joins the site. I have a problem with those who won't be fans when and if we start sucking. We have suffered for 14 years of turmoil to only have folks jump on and then jump off when times get tough. Some so called "redskin fans" today, will be "BIG browns fans" tomorrow.

How do you know they're not fans when we suck? Just because they call for certain players to get benched or cut, or start criticizing Gibbs and the coaching staff DOES NOT MEAN THEY ARE NOT FANS. They're voicing an opinion, no matter how ill-informed others may perceive it to be.

Similarly, say, if someone joins the site when we're on a win streak, and then takes a long leave of absence when we suck or are eliminated from the playoffs DOES NOT MEAN THEY AREN'T A TRUE FAN. It simply is more fun to join a forum and talk about things when a team is winning.
