And dont get me wrong about bandwagoners, I hate them too. I freaking can't stand the Sabres right now because everyone here acts like they've been with them since day one, when the arena was empty and they almost contracted a few years ago....but I dont think you need a real reason to like a team. You just start to like them and if you stick with them I dont see why that can't be your team.

I'm just being very general. I mean I'm not a die hard Duke fan or anything, I root for Syracuse every much as I do Duke, so it has nothing to really do with them. I just think you can start liking a team because you enjoy watching them and become a fan.

i pretty much agree with you, if someone starts to like a team just because that team is good, that person must cheer them on just as much when that team is bad.
what i hate (and i've seen this alot lately) is when in every day life, around this area (hampton roads) i see maybe 3 or 4 flags on a car or stickers in a window or hats on someone of a team like the bears or the colts...etc., then all the sudden everywhere i look i see those same team's logos all over the damn place. people say "well i root for the skins but i've always been a bears fan". thats bullcrap, the only reason that they now wear the bears stuff is because they went to the superbowl.
