You know what really grinds my gears?

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

I didn't know living in a city means you have to root for the teams that are there.

In fact, that's something that grinds MY gears. When people think that.

Especially when I'm an actual die hard fan. I've lived in North Jersey my entire life, and I'm a Cowboys fan. I'm not a fake fan. I watch every game when it is possible. I'm more of a fan than the fans of the teams from their own city.

That's definitely a gear grinder. How can I be a front runner? We haven't won anything since football and I started having an emotional relationship.

Yup. I root for teams from all over.

Vols - my alma mater
49ers - lived in Northern California and my family knew the Montana family
Braves - grandparents lived in Atlanta and I'd go to Braves games with my grandfather
Penguins - other grandparents lived in Pittsburgh
Bulls - ... ok, yeah, I jumped on the bandwagon when Jordan was there and never left

And now I live in Alabama, but there's no way - NONE - that I will root for Alabama or Auburn.

This. I live in Portland...so people here think I should be rooting for the Sewer Pigeons. Gross. Worst part is, they force us to watch them. Thank Al Gore for the internet!

When fans talk out of their *** and predict their team to manhandle another and are right. Nothing like seeing a carried away fan have to eat the biggest crow to ever flap wings after the game.

Not really living in a city but being born and raised there. And not saying you cant root for other teams. To me rooting for a team and being a "fan" is different. Like I can "root" for the redsox to knock of the Yankees, that doesn't make me a redsox "fan".

The disparity between men's and women's business/professional attire. How can you take a talking head seriously when you ****ing see her mid-rift while she's raging about politics?

Seriously. Guys go on TV and are all uniformed with the shirts and ties. Women apparently go on TV and can dress like hookers; well her view point isn't so logical, but look at her legs!

I've lived in Kansas City since I was three and both of my parents are from here, but I don't give a flying **** about the Chiefs. Does that mean I'm not allowed to be a fan of any other football team?

People that are from a city but are "fans" of teams from other cities. For example lets say you're born and raised around Baltimore but yet you're a yankees fan...

I'm a Cowboys fan but what was born in Atlanta. I have been since birth. Why? My family is from Texas.
A lot of times the best conversations when meeting new people is how they fell in love with their team.

Correct! Maybe it's just me but I could never imagine pulling for a team other than my home team regardless of how crappy they are.

Don't forget Aerosmith and The Rolling Stones too.

Well, I was just naming a few bands that I actually "cared" about..

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

You will be surprised how many people born & raised in Chicago that are die hard Cowboy fans. From what I noticed, some people are fans of teams that their dad was a fan of, especially women.

I know one Cowboy fan.

I cannot verify your statement.

When people type long, drawn out essays on here.

Better put that **** in Spoilers or something.
