Ever get insulted on being a redskins fan????

[furrymayo]

I am a high school student in South Carolina, and I get teased about being a redskins fan all the time. You see around where I live everyone is a stupid panthers fan and everytime I start to talk about the skins winning I get harrased. Then I just tell them about the glory days. I just wanted to know if anyone ever makes fun of you??

yeah, last sunday by some losers named elisha, tiki and shockey.

[aehs77]

everyday, I work with multiple dallas fans

quite interesting, considering until the existance of the Panthers, the Carolinas were Redskins country.

Don't sweat it, and don't let it bother you. I'm constantly being teased for being a Skins fan, but that's mostly from my Uncle (a diehard Cowboys fan), or from my friends who usually jump from one bandwagon to another.

That's what it is all about-Loyalty.

Cowboy fans have to invest in a new wardrobe every 5 years, having dumped their clothes when the Boyz Schtink.

I'm used to dumbasses on a daily basis seeing me in my coat or the stuff on my car and they start trying to talk trash. Most of the time I just look at them and yawn but some times I'll talk back making sure they understand how pathetic they r for trying to start something about my team. I've only had a couple people actually keep it up after saying something back, but most say something incrediblly intelligent and witty like "f-u" and "ur team suckx" and so on and so forth. it still amazes me the amount of cowpie and eagle fans that r in the state of virginia.

Ask them who they rooted for prior to the Panthers coming to town?

Are they Redskins fans who jumped off the bandwagon after the 90s or are they Falcons fans who never had a bandwagon TO jump off until this year?

hang in there kid.als,im old enough to have lived the glory days with the skins.the panthers shot their load 2 years in reaching the super bowl and now are headed in the other direction.where you have loads of tradition surrounding your redskins,what can anyone say about carolina except for the one trip to the super bowl.ill bet you people can name 5 starters on the redskins before they can on the panthers.keep your head held high and know that the skins will make it back to the big one before carolina will

I spent several years in Houston. That was kinda' rough with so many boy's fans around. On the bright side, there was no shortage of people to place a wager on the Skins/Cowboys game

That must have been a LONG time ago. . . . if I ever bet on the Redskins, which I don't, it certainly wouldn't be when we play the cowgirls.

The problem you have is that the Panthers are a new team with little history. If they were Eagle fans you could just point to the fact the Skins have won 3 SB's and with all their success latley they can't win the big game. You can point out we have played them 7 time in the past ten years and we have won 6 of those games. If they don't believe you just tell them to go to the Panthers web page its all there in black and white. So in reality if we have been that bad they have still been our little wipping boys. Good luck and don't let it bother you.
