What Type Of Sports Fan Are You?

We all have our favorite players, teams and even sports but the one thing that differs from person to person is how they express themselves during a game. To some these traits can be annoying, but to most it makes the experience all the better. Which one are you? If you don't think you're any of these, chances are you are...just ask your friends.

The Screamer


A.K.A. coach. S/he will yell as if the players can hear him/her. They will yell in public or at home. Usually, s/he doesn't have a filter and will curse at the most inappropriate times.

The Quiet One

This person just sits back and relaxes while watching their favorite sports team. Often, you can’t tell if they’re in to the game or not.

The Superstitious One

This person has worn the same article of clothing for 10 years. They think their team will lose if they don't have their lucky underwear on.

The Band-Wagoner

This is self - explanatory. This person jumps on the back of the best teams during that time and gets offended as if they’ve been a fan for years. *Miami Heat fans*

The Jockey

This person isn't necessarily a sports fan, but they like specific players. Much like the band-wagoner, this person will act like they've been a fan of this person for years, but chances are they only started liking them once they got good. *Most LeBron James fans*

The Gambler

Doesn't have a favorite team, only a favorite hobby and that's making money. They usually have multiple accounts to different fantasy leagues.

The Face Painter

This person no matter what event, high school, college or pro shows up with a face covered in paint. It may be embarrassing to look at but just imagine the people that went with him.

The Normal Fan

Chances are if you're not any of the fans listed above you're a normal fan. You watch games to relax and secretly hope for your favorite team to win. You don't make it known if you're angry and upset and like the quiet fan, half the time you seem uninterested.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
