I am somewhat that way towards baseball. I have two teams. But in the end I just want to see a good baseball game.

I was like that for a long time with NBA. I was a Shaq fan so when he went to the Lakers. I was a lakers fan. He left I was a Heat fan. After that though, that was it. Hornets all day!!!!!!!!!!
 
Both of those type of fans don't get my respect. Once you choose a team that's your team for life imo. Through the bad years and the glory years.
 
1.I think thats what every fan is(even die hards) to an extent. We are all fans of any sport we follow a team in, we just want the team to do well. But even the most die hard fan likes to see a good game, provided his team wins of course.

2. I think that type of fanhood is more acceptable below the ages of 15 or so. Kids will always follow the player more initially, it takes time for allegiance to a *team* to grow. But hey, if you're a fan of a player, so what? In the end you're rooting for the player, as long as you're honest about it....I see no problem with it. I'm no Panther fan, but I try to catch their games because of Cam Newton.

this is how i feel even though i find myself more rooting for individuals than teams, feel like im tied to my teams for life
 
I dont take those type of fans seriously. When Pippen left the Bulls he became the enemy, the same with Frank Thomas. I dont see myself being a fan of a team outside Chicago
 
Grew up in a city that didn't have a basketball team till I was in HS so I never had a fav team.

Oh well.

I dont scream go heat or go Lakers. But lebron and Kobe is my fav players.
 
Saints, LSU, and the Braves been my teams since I was born.

Don't have a basketball team though don't know why just don't.

And nobody on here every seen me type go (insert any basketball team)
 
I hate every nigga that likes the Heat bcuz of Bron..

It is what it is tho..

The only way its acceptable in my eyes is uf you grew up with no teams in your nearby area so you just went with whoever was hot at the time..

I have a guy like that at my job. He was a Cavs fan because of Bron and now he is a Heat fan for the same reason. It is like that for his football team too. He likes Vick so he went from a Falcons fan to a Eagles fan now.
 
i cant respect a person who follows a player over a team. i was a bulls fan cause of jordan, but i stuck wit them thru all the losing, same with the cowboys i was a fan when they was winning super bowls but i still stuck wit them thru all the losing. i cant possibly see myself rooting for another team, its just sickening to me.
 
i've only rooted for the bulls and bears my entire team. i don't have a problem with people who switch teams with there favorite player because i am guilty of that in baseball. i've never rooted for the white soxs (even though i cool with them when they win because my dad is a white soxs) and i've always hated the cubs. i root for whatever team a-rod is on because thats my favorite player.
 
1 if you hot a fan of a team then i can't be mad at you. as long as it's stated that you dont' really root for a certain team but just players.

2. bitch shit. once you pick a team you pick a team for life.
 
Player fans can be annoying because their bias often hinders their ability to objectively analyze something that has happened in a game, season, etc. If you engage in convos with them at times the tone swings from honest and intelligent discussion or analysis to irrational caping and blaming.

I couldn't wait for last season to be over so these super casual Broncos (Tebow really, not Broncos) followers could shut the fuck up and stop commenting on the team.

To be honest, fans who change teams gives me an initial feeling of disgust as a sports fan, but I'm starting to realize how a lot of people do things like become fans of a team or an artist, etc. For social reasons. Had someone tell me he would become a Nats fan just yesterday. I'm like really? Things like that seem foreign to me, but his thought process was more like "i'm here now so I may as well engage in their shit."

Some of these things may bother me as a sports fan, but I am aware of what little importance this stuff is in the grand scheme of things. So its not THAT serious.
 
The worst feeling is when bandwagon fans are having a convo about YOUR team. I saw that shit yesterday and was disgusted. I been a heat fan since 04-05'.

I got nothing against fans who have no fav team but like certain players because sometimes they are the most objective/non-biased.

But like i said before, hawks fan at work called me a front runner. I deadass wanted to get fired over fuckin him up because one thing you do not do is call real fans bandwagoners. Thats how i knew emm holla was gonna get pissed when truth writer said that to him lol
 
Im only a Bulls fan and a Bears fan and also a Cubs fan. fuck the Sox. and to be a fan of a team only cuz of a nigga that is on there is gay.
 
I don't fully agree with how bandwagon fans move, but truth be told the sports world wouldn't be nearly as successful without bandwagon fans....they the reason why Kobe and LeBron get cheers at away games....
