Question for everyone and this can become a reality after 2015
Say if the islanders moved to a city like KC or Seattle or Quebec, would I be a fraud fan if I rooted for them in their new city?
i wouldn't think so.
what would you do if you got a new team, say, 5 years down the road though?
the eagles almost moved to phoenix when i was a kid. i've always wondered what that would have been like. people in baltimore and cleveland know the answer i guess.

Well your teams leaves your town to move elsewhere i feel you have the choice to continue to follow say if the Bruins moved to Charlotte. Then say if you chose to not follow the Bruins and take on Charlotte I think that would be fine.
Many have done that with Hartford Whalers or LA Rams to St Louis.

unfortunately i work with an ubber douchebag. this is a guy who openly admits to trying to emmulate ari from entourage and always tries to make himself the center of attention. i despise people like that.
anywho...he also exposed himself as a sports fraud this morning. he attempted to talk about sports when it was blatently apparent to everyone involved that he had no idea what he was talking about. i try to ignore everything he says so i wasn't listening that closely. he said something like the phillies only had 2 pitchers worth anything or something stupid like that. so he's that guy. why even attempt that conversation? know your limits and shut the hell up for once. douche.

we don't even acknowledge each other's presence. it's like a known thing that we dont like each other without even saying anything.

I disagree with the commish. If the Giants had gone to Tampa in '93.....I was done (or at least that's what I told myself). Truly tho, I can't see myself rooting for a dome team with an average fan age of 75. I'm old....but not that fucking old.

i have a couple people like that in my office....i only talk to them when it's business related and there is nobody else to ask.
yeah. even then i have to grit me teeth.
this guy openly brags to people about his latest fake tan, or full body wax, or his latest hair highlights. seriously. yada yada yada. it is nauseating.

he's essentially orange from all the fake tans. so i guess imagine someone who didnt make the cut for the jersey shore cast. also, he's 37 and acts 23 which further adds to the douchiness.
i'm in the same boat...grew up a flyers fan in ohio, live in the chicago market now. not sure how i would feel about it if they moved.[/quote]
you guys don't even live in philadelphia. what would you care? [/quote]
i've been to a Flyers game in Philly and i paid for my own dinner....that has to count for something...right[/quote]
I also have been to about 20 flyers game in philly and have 4 jersey and also support the great philly band boys to men so i think in reality i am more a part of philly than toronto
Ok I read the rules but I'm still not sure if my stories check out. The Packers and the Sixers are my favorite teams, I liked the packers because my family/friends who were Steelers fans and it started to get on my nerves because all they ever talked about was the Steelers, so I picked the team that had the same colors as my school, that one's fine right? And as for the sixers I honestly don't remember cus I was like REALLY young when I started liking basketball but I'm pretty sure it's just because they were the only team in my state so that's fine too right?

where are you from again? around philly? hburg?
Johnstown, it's closer to Pittsburgh than either of those
People around here are hardcore steelers fans and it really pisses me off because they know every little thing about the steelers but can't name 5 other players in the whole NFL, even former Steelers, Santonio Holmes for example, when he caught that pass in the super bowl he was everybody's hero and my family probably knew everything about him, but I'd be willing to bet a million bucks that no one in my family would know who he plays for now, it's not the Steelers so who cares? that's their mentality and I never wanted to be a part of that. If that's considered being a fraud then whatever I'm a fraud.

I don't think you would be consider a fraud as long as the sole reason you like the team is not just because they play in yoru city.
I live in Toronto and have been a Flyers fan for over 25 years and if the flyers left and moved to another town i would still cheer for them.
i'm in the same boat...grew up a flyers fan in ohio, live in the chicago market now. not sure how i would feel about it if they moved.
Gotta love working in an office. I have a couple people like that here as well.
you guys don't even live in philadelphia. what would you care?
ha. no

i've been to a Flyers game in Philly and i paid for my own dinner....that has to count for something...right
