I saw Silver lInings Playbook tonight and there was one scene in it that was perfect for this thread. It takes place in philly so obvious the family, mainly the dad, are diehard Eagles fans, but they have one friend/neighbor who likes the Cowboys and I think the Giants as well (or he just hates the Eagles). Well anywho he was saying Dallas is America's team, blah blah blah. Later on the film he has on Giants gear as well :fp:

i didn't mean it like in the very next scene he was wearing a Giants shirt. I think he liked both the Cowboys and Giants or whomever was playing the Eagles I guess. During the movie he placed bets against them.

de niro had to have called him out as a fraud right? please tell me he did. this movie seems like a classic already...but will be infinitely better if de niro frauds this guy out.
How about this one. What if your team(s) really suck, but your unfraudulent friends' team(s) do not, and they are nearing a title run. Are you supposed to sit by idly and watch your friends run around dorm rooms or bars or their houses doing stupid touchdown celebrations, homerun chants, goal screams, etc. or can you pick up and root hard for the team that would bring them the most miserable defeat? I'm not talking about that team being backup or anything just the team of the moment, a one-week stand as it were. I'm a proud fraud, and have found myself rooting for the likes of Rex Grossman, Dirk Nowitzki, Reggie Miller, the Vancouver Canucks, anyone the Patriots ever come across, and so on based on this behavioral choice. Thoughts?
You can root for anyone to win, but you can't buy their jerseys and gear and claim you are a fan. That's what makes the NCAA tourney so great. There is always a team to root for ... especially if gambling is involved.
I did the same fist pump that Peyton Manning did when Eli hit Plax for a TD in the Super Bowl.
yeah if your team is not in it but your friend's team is...there's no problem rooting against whoever is playing your friend's squad. unless, i guess, that team is one of your team's arch rivals, then you got some layers to deal with.
another thing you can do in that situation is put money on the other team just to make your rooting interest against his that much more intense.
i went to college with a bunch of people from north jersey so i found myself rooting for whoever was playing the giants, yankees, and knicks at the time. in hindsight, i guess it is no different than what i do now though.

in a way he does. He mainly says you are from philly but how can you root for the Cowboys or something like that. You'll def. like it. We saw it in the KOP theater which was really funny cause they mention the KOP mall in the movie. Also had some scenes in Delco like this one diner was in the movie, forget the name of it, The Landmark Diner :?:

I think you can add Billy Crystal to the list. Watching sports center and he's co-hosting. He's a Yankees, Jets and Clippers fan?

Is that usually how it is for NY fans? I'd imagine the Yankees and Giants fans are also Knicks and Ranger fans?? Mets and Jets fans usually go with the Nets and Devils/Islanders?? Just a guess.

yes usually if your yanks ..you are giants
mets....with jets
rangers go with the yanks and giants
islanders go with the jets and mets
knicks go with everyone (cept me)
obviously their are some mixed up people like myself...but this is the NY dealio
i post on the board of a band that doesn't exsist anymore .......i need my head examined.......
Does being a Yankees, Bills, and Rangers fan make me a fraud?
you're from buffalo though, right?
no love for the sabres? I actually like them though :oops: (one of my favorite players played with them) and my god father is from there. :thumbup:

"Becoming a Bruce fan is like hitting puberty as a musical fan. It's inevitable." - dcfaithful
would be more fradulent if he was a lakers fan. i give him some credit for picking the clips and sticking with them.....now let's see...
the yankees, the jets, and the lakers.....i wonder who is a fan of all 3 of those teams? :think: :think:
:wave:
sadly i make no sense.....living out my days as a Jets/yanks fan :fp: (thats for the jets)
guess thats why i have little interest in foozeball
Is that usually how it is for NY fans? I'd imagine the Yankees and Giants fans are also Knicks and Ranger fans?? Mets and Jets fans usually go with the Nets and Devils/Islanders?? Just a guess.

Yeah, that's what I figured it was...
Islanders, Jets, and Mets?? That would suck.
yes it would...im sitting next to one now
this "rule" applies to a very good amount of NY ..don't ask me why
you're from buffalo though, right?
no love for the sabres? I actually like them though :oops: (one of my favorite players played with them) and my god father is from there. :thumbup:
