    Haha.  I didn't take it lightly and I certainly got lots of shit about it from my Bruins meathead fan friends back home.
    Only time I have done it.

  • Makes sense on Hockey.  It is the only sport where I changed team loyalties 
    When I moved to Los Angeles I wanted to root for one local pro team and decided to throw out the Boston Bruins for the Kings.  The majority of the time I have been a Kings fan they have been awful.  Looking forward to being good again!

    Lakers bandwagon fans are awful.  Standard Lakers fans are fine but the number of people who would claim to be huge fans when Kobe and Shaq were awesome was beyond annoying.
    For Hockey I stopped watching the Islanders after they traded Kasparitus.  I saw them lose Lafontaine too.  They have come around big time recently but I haven't thrown my hat back in that ring yet...

    I first became a Lakers fan with showtime in the 80's.
  • Are there really a lot of bandwagon hockey fans though?

    By the way, congrats on your Lakers @tempo_n_groove . I was wrong about them this year. 
    TY sir.

    I don't see the Lakers being a bandwagon team anymore, Cowboys either.   

    I can't remember ever being that upset over a sporting event either, lol.

    These are classic bandwagon teams - when they see good everyone flies their flags.  When they suck, a lot of fans no longer fly that shit around.

    Yeah we've discussed this before.  I'm a sports fan first.  I've got zero hometown loyalty because I moved around so much. I chose to root for different teams for different reasons.  I'm not a homer at least.
  • Lakers though I rooted for LBJ what ever team he's on.
    Halos i attend local Mets and Yankees games to cheer them on.
    Broncos TV only
    Islanders Haven't been to USB yet.

    College
    Football Hurricanes
    Basketball  UNC but I don't care as much since the 1 and done era.  It's hard to be excited about a team thats a different roster every year.
