If that's your definition....count me in. I should've began rooting for the team I never got to watch.....that's fun.

Sorry Wes....my apologies and this is my final speak.

"bandwagon" as per Merriam Webster's 10th Edition Collegiate Dictionary

1 ornate and high wagon for a band of musicians especially in a circus

2 a popular party, faction, or cause that attracts growing support

3 a current of fashionable trend

Sorry, don't see my love of the Steelers falling into this. #2 is the closest but the Steelers weren't any good when I started watching them until about 3rd year.

I'm also considered a "bandwagoner." Don't waste your time trying to explain.

This is pretty much a "they started it" response, but if certain idiots didn't come on here and try to turn this into a cleveland fan thing, then there would be no pissing match. It just happens that when people trash lebron (even though a good majority of these people aren't cavs fans), you have the same lebron nuthuggers, or cleveland haters(I92 in this case), trying to turn this into a cleveland is butthurt pissing match. They can go fuck themselves if they think they can post that bs and get away with it. That's all i got to say about that.

LMAO, you are still talking about this? Glad to see the bandwagon comments get under your skin. I would be pissy too if everyone called me out for being a bandwagoner.

Lebron is the best player on the planet and probably will go down as a top 10 player of all time regardless if he wins a championship or not.

He's a huge douche though. He makes Kobe look like an angel.

LBJ is a douche no doubt, but he hasn't raped a chick (or a guy) that we know of....yet.

There's no questioning that he's the best player but he is a mega-douche and he is a choke artist/tends to shrivel up at crunch time.

Exactly what i am talking about.

Anyway, Rondo is going to need to play out of his mind again if Boston wants to make this a series.

After that last loss, I don't see how Boston gets back into it. They had no business blowing that game with Rondo going off like that.

It is possible to like teams from different cities/states. For Example

My favorite teams are Cavs, Indians, Buckeyes, and.......... the New Orleans Saints. Been a fan since I was like 9 years old when my mom bought me a Bobby Hebert football uniform because they were sold out at the time of the Browns. So her choices were the Saints or Falcons and she picked New Orleans. So since then always been a fan. So being a fan of a team with a 6-8 career playoff record and only 1 playoff win before the Brees/Payton in like 40 years definitely doesn't really make a bandwagon fan in my opinion.


I want OKC to win it all but I think the Spurs are better equipped to beat the Heat so its a tough call for me. As long as Miami loses, I will be happy.
