Why is it that when someone is a fan of a certain team hes called dumb?

the sox question i posted i wanted to clarify. I DID SEE THE GAME AND THE PLAY WITH AJ. He did have a bad baserunning mistake which he admitted. give him some credit he played it right and got the call. i didnt say it was a fair call. but he used his head. have to give him credit for that. A-rod was wrong also that was bad for him. But if it happend on your team you wouldnt be complaining if it went your way as it did for aj.

Answer 1

You are right. AJ is a smarter than average player. He deserves credit for a heads-up play. As to fans of other teams, they are all all right in my book. Well, the Cubs' fans are an exception for me, but I claim rights because I'm from Illinois and am old enough to know the history behind the division of the two teams' fans. I truly respect the few baseball smart Cub fans, too.

Answer 2

Thats the way the Baseball Life is. Im a Dodgers fan so all NL West and the Athletics and Yankee fans are dumb. The Way it goes!

Answer 3

Every team has that a*****e player that no else likes that is not a fan of that team.  All the fan has to say is that he may be an a*****e, but he is my a*****e.  Who cares man, you are a fan of the ChiSox and they are fans of another team, that is why it happens.  Oh well.

Answer 4

If you have to say that fans of a team you don't like are dumb, you are immature and can't talk about sports respectfully. I want nothing to do with you if that's the case.

I don't care who you root for. Every team has great fans and every team has jerk fans. And I mean EVERY team.

Just because you cheer for one team doesn't make you better, smarter, sexier, nicer, or have fresher breath than anyone else.  

Answer 5

Because some people don't know what they're talking about. Some don't know how to be fans of baseball and respect others.

It's usually the bandwagons and fairweathers who have to resort to such petty insults.

Answer 6

Same reason that whe someone say they're a Cubs fan, they are automatically butt pirate pillow biters. B/c they are.

Answer 7

idk

Answer 8

Well, a reason why I call many other fans stupid is because everytime I go to a Blue Jays game against the Yankees, there are always alot of Yankee fans. Point is, alot of them are really stupid (no offense) I mean don't get me wrong not all are, but alot that I see are just plain dumb "ADURRRR WHERE'S MY SEAT" (even though the numbers are posted rather large on the aisle). Oh yeah and last game there was some Cleveland Indian fans there that ate like they have never eaten before and it was rather disgusting. So now, just because some people are stupid they are all stupid, lol.

Answer 9

If the "certain team" is the Mets, then it doesn't require an explanation.

Answer 10

Are you from Philadelphia?
