If you cheer for more than one team? I like a lot of teams, and will watch any just about any game I can in general. I'll list my top 5 teams and reasons I like them, but according to some people you can only be a fan of one team, or else you're a fake fan, or a bandwagon fan. If one of your other teams is having a good season.
1. Seahawks (Home town team, I admit I did jump on the bandwagon, but I've liked them since I was a kid. Just wasn't a hardcore football fan as a kid.)
2. Raiders (My older brother's favorite team of all time, I grew up with them)
3. Vikings (My other brother's favorite team, he's been a diehard fan since I was a kid, so I grew up with them as well.)
4. Browns (They are technically my second favorite team, but I haven't been a fan for as long. This is purely started as an underdog thing. Also I have always played as them on Madden, so I know most of their players and playbook. I just have a soft spot for them, and have grown to love them, also I love their colors. Guess no one can accuse me of being a bandwagon fan at least )
5. Whichever team is playing the Patriots. ( It's true, damn true)
I also enjoy a lot of other teams, the Bills, you know why. Fins, Tampa Bay, Cards, that started from playing as them on NFL Blitz back in the day. The list goes on, like teams that have players I like. For example I cheered for the Colts when they had Hasselbeck starting. I've been called a bandwagon fan for cheering for a team I've liked for years. Although as a Seahawks fan, people already assume you're a bandwagon fan.
If you jumped on the bandwagon? I hear that a lot from Pats fans, but didn't they just join their bandwagon sooner? Unless they were "born into" the team. I feel like a lot of fans favorite team, is a team that was good when they started watching. Most Pats fans I know aren't old enough to have cheered for them when they sucked. Are they not bandwagon fans too?
What is a fake fan to you guys? I'm just interested on your thoughts on the subject.
Also I found this picture, that I can at least agree with.
