Also, has nothing to do with where my parents had sex and "popped" me out. I'm from Ohio, lived in ohio most of my life and my family is an Ohio State family. I have pride in where I'm from and I'm not a bandwagon jumping chump. Nice fail.

And I proved you wrong...with the articles you posted. Te'o didn't start the fund. Te'o didn't promote the fund. Te'o may not have even known about the fund. It's all right there in the article that YOU posted.

My family isn't an Ohio State family. My family is a Notre Dame family. How does that make me a bandwagon jumping chump? Also...don't people hop on bandwagons because a team is a consistent winner? Since that's not the case with Notre Dame, I'm not sure how you could call any Notre Dame fan over the last several years a bandwagon jumping chump.

You are slipping, dude.

Bandwagoning has nothing to do with winning. Nice fail. I'm glad you confirmed it, I figured it was the case, you come from a family of bandwaongers.

Am I considered a bandwagon fan considering where I grew up in Ohio I was actually closer to ND then Ohio st? I grew up in a catholic family and my dad is a ND fan. I moved to pa 3-4 years ago but I'm still a Cleveland fan through and through.

If the question hangs like ND's BCS opponents hang points then the answer is probably yes.

You obviously don't know what a bandwagon fan is if you say it has nothing to do with winning. I always enjoy when you bring this argument up, its great for the lulz.

Bandwagon fans (you) always get your feelz hurt. You'll notice real fans dont get butthurt and continue to bring it up explaining their stories.

No, but "real" fans such as yourself continually bring up the weak bandwagon argument to prove to others what a great loyal fan they are. Good for you, you are a loyal fan to Cleveland. The problem is you have no clue what a bandwagon fan is if you say it has nothing to do with winning but instead has something to do with where you are from.

LOL, winning plays a part. But regardless rooting for a team that is not where you're from/have ties to makes you a bandwagoner.

No, it doesn't.

Sorry, COA, but you're wrong on this one.

I prefer to call ND fans "indoctrinated bandwagon fans" since ND was successful back when their parents raised them; whom were most likely bandwagon fans. So while technically the current generation of ND fans are not true bandwagon fans, they definitely are living in the past if they think they are anywhere near the top echelon of college football anymore. 0-4 in BCS bowl games losing by an average of 24+ points a game is a shitty bottom feeder who gets overhyped by the media year and year out; only to have the results on the field reflect the true quality of the program. :laugh:

so, why are you a caps fan then?

Was never into hockey growing up until I moved to PA. My girls uncle runs pretty much all of hershey entertainment so I got free tickets to a bunch of bears games (caps minor league team). Met a bunch of players(Beagle, Holtby, Green.) at the local bar and got to know them so I became a caps fan.

Mike Green seems like a douche bag.

Yeah he kinda is. Bought a lot of people drinks though so he's ok in my book haha

I always thought a bandwagon fan was one who followed a team as long as they were winning, and then would move on to another winning team when that team fell on tough times. Am I wrong?

No COA is just butt hurt

This.

lol no I'm not. My scope is just expanded. Changing teams period makes you a bandwagoner. Doesn't matter if team is good or not. Also IMO you should root for your hometown, city, state team. State borders count. Cleveland browns/MICH fan is a bandwagoner. Steelers, OSU fan is a bandwagoner. ND Football, UNC Basketball, Chicago Bulls, Boston Bruin, Yankee fan is a bandwagoner.

Someone who roots for the Denver Nuggets from Cleveland is a bandwagon fan period, doesn't matter if team is good or not. BEsides chances are they were good when the idiot jumped over to become a "fan". Also Atl falcon "fan" living in Ohio doesn't get the same satisifaction/enjoyment that a Browns fan living in Cleveland would get.

Hilarious that only bandwagon fans, all of which feel the need to tell us their story (when no one asked), and the only ones butt hurt here.

Not butt hurt. I support my in state teams. I love all my Cleveland teams. I'm only a ND fan instead of OSU. I actually grew up closer to south bend then I did Columbus and I can bet any amount of money I've been to more ND games then you have Ohio state games and I actually have connections to ND. And I also am a ND basketball fan.
