Being a sports fan is great and terrible at the same time. Or depending on your teams it may just be plain terrible (Browns and 76ers fans, i'm sorry). Being a fan you go through some highs and sometimes a lot of lows. Your team can make or break your day, weekend, or year. Sports fandom is glorious and torture at the same time; this is what its like, as told by The Office.
When you're team does something good you obviously are excited.
When they don't do something good it's not as exciting. That fumble...interception...penalty...error...ejection...the list goes on.
When they don't do something good AGAIN it just becomes ugly.
When they finally do something good again it feels like a miracle.
If they loose there may or may not be tears...
And if they loose and someone tries to bring it up, its not pretty.
And if someone tries to tell you your rival team or player is better, wellllllll they may want to think again.
If you loose one of your star players to injury or trades...it is not good.
Or maybe your team just sucks at the draft/recruiting/playing and you just know you're in for another year of disappointment.
But when you meet a fellow fan...
If you manage to root for that championship team, there is always time for a little celebration. Let's face it, some teams may never win a championship in our lifetime (so choose wisely).
Being a fan is rough but we wouldn't have it any other way. Good luck to all your teams...just more luck to mine!
