DG_YouKnowWhatThatMeans Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I remain a McNabb fan, and will continue to pull for the Eagles to get the big game.

Mac the Knife Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 No hate from me. I am rooting for The Ravens against The Steelers. It's just that I would like to see either Philly or Arizona win since they've never won a Super Bowl. As long as it's not The Steelers, I don't really care. I don't hate The Ravens. I'm a little miffed that the franchise couldn't do here what it's done in Baltimore but that's hardly the team's fault. As you said, that was a long time ago. I'm over it. Go Ravens.Yea, I kinda regret saying that (just because I was afraid it might get this thread way off topic). The only reason it really bothers me is that I feel alot of Cleveland fans make the Baltimore fans out to be the bad guys. When we know exactly how you guys felt. It was a shame we had to get a relocated team instead of an expansion team, but that appeared to be the only way to bring football back to Baltimore. In a way I hope Browns fans can one day find success much like the Ravens have in Baltimore (although its hard to truly root for you guys since we are in the same division).To be clear and to momentarily veer off-topic, Browns fans have no animosity whatsoever against Baltimore sports fans. The hatred of the Ravens has absolutely nothing to do with you, and everything to do with that scum swilling reprobate who's death date will be celebrated annually in my home once it actually happens with singing, dancing, presents and the telling of stories: Art "Ass hole" Modell. Until he's dead and gone, the hatred will be there, whether he's still in control of the team or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at the game this year and it was about 70/30, more Cardinal fans than there were Cowboy fans, but after the game was over, there were a few that have converted to Cardinals. There are rabid Cowboys fans here and always will be here, but this has become a city of Red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Epiphanic Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Consistently a playoff-caliber club that consistently chokes in the playoffs or in the final week(s) of the season.Quick edit: Although I'm not sure if the Vikings are "lovable" in the same sense as the Cubs are. In fact, I can't think of any team that is lovable by the general fan base because they've suffered so much. The Saints maybe? "In the arena of logic, I fight unarmed."I tweet & tumble.

In fact, I can't think of any team that is lovable by the general fan base because they've suffered so much. The Saints maybe?If there even is an NFL equivalent to The Cubs I'd say it's maybe the Saints. I just don't think there really is any NFL team that's comparable to The Cubs. I'd say The Vikings are more like The Texas Rangers. They are decent once in a while but no one outside their immediate fan base gives a about them. All roads lead to Dollar General.
