Brian in Mesa said:People have different opinions on this, but if you are all for divided loyalty, that's fine by me. Just don't talk like you're a huge diehard fan if you've got love for another team, ala the Mavs.
When I say I'm a Lakers fan (or bring up the team I support in another sport) you can take it to the bank. I don't own jerseys/shirts of multiple franchises, etc. I know people who do and it's just ridiculous.
Plenty of people pull for one team or another in a series, but are not fans of those teams. That's not what we're talking about. We're talking about the "I'm a Mavs fan, except when they play my Suns." (and vice versa).
Just a pet peeve. I know Card Trader and some others on the board share my opinion.
I really got fed up with it years ago when I'd call into Jeff Kennedy's show to argue on air with NEM, because he'd go on and say I'm a New England fan and an Arizona fan...and then he'd proceed to rip the Cards, never saying anything positive about them.
Did you even read my posts when Suns VS Mavs?
It seems the ONLY time you post is to try to make fun of me. I was 100% cheering for Suns to beat Mavs in Semi-final. I do like Mavs MORE THAN Spurs if that's what's bothering you.
And I am sorry I fail to show you how I divide my love towards Suns and Mavs. You were asking me if it's 51% Suns or 49% Mavs. How should I answer this question? You tell me. What I can tell you is I root EVERYTHING against Spurs. If that's the answer you are looking for.
Some people follow teams, some people follow players and some people follow the trend. I don't follow teams that much because there is no HOME team in my area. There was Grizzily in Vancouver but they've moved already. Now, I just follow Nash and his fast-ball games and am really enjoying Suns this season. They ARE the superior version of Mavs' fast-ball and thus I have higher expectation of them.
Just because I am different from you, doesn't mean you can keep insulting me on any chace you have. If that's what hard-core fans are all about, then count me out. I love Suns but not crazy enough to insult ANY body else that doesn't devote their whole life to a team.
And if you enjoy Spurs fans coming here to talk BS. Let it be. Afterall, we are the losing one and it seems NOT to bother you AT ALL.
