Ever get insulted on being a redskins fan????

furrymayo · 11-03-2005, 04:18 PM

I am a high school student in South Carolina, and I get teased about being a redskins fan all the time. You see around where I live everyone is a stupid panthers fan and everytime I start to talk about the skins winning I get harrased. Then I just tell them about the glory days. I just wanted to know if anyone ever makes fun of you??

yeah, last sunday by some losers named elisha, tiki and shockey.

everyday, I work with multiple dallas fans

quite interesting, considering until the existance of the Panthers, the Carolinas were Redskins country.

Don't sweat it, and don't let it bother you. I'm constantly being teased for being a Skins fan, but that's mostly from my Uncle (a diehard Cowboys fan), or from my friends who usually jump from one bandwagon to another.

Ask them who they rooted for prior to the Panthers coming to town?

Are they Redskins fans who jumped off the bandwagon after the 90s or are they Falcons fans who never had a bandwagon TO jump off until this year?

hang in there kid.als,im old enough to have lived the glory days with the skins.the panthers shot their load 2 years in reaching the super bowl and now are headed in the other direction.where you have loads of tradition surrounding your redskins,what can anyone say about carolina except for the one trip to the super bowl.ill bet you people can name 5 starters on the redskins before they can on the panthers.keep your head held high and know that the skins will make it back to the big one before carolina will

That's what it is all about-Loyalty.

Cowboy fans have to invest in a new wardrobe every 5 years, having dumped their clothes when the Boyz Schtink.

I spent several years in Houston. That was kinda' rough with so many boy's fans around. On the bright side, there was no shortage of people to place a wager on the Skins/Cowboys game

The problem you have is that the Panthers are a new team with little history. If they were Eagle fans you could just point to the fact the Skins have won 3 SB's and with all their success latley they can't win the big game. You can point out we have played them 7 time in the past ten years and we have won 6 of those games. If they don't believe you just tell them to go to the Panthers web page its all there in black and white. So in reality if we have been that bad they have still been our little wipping boys. Good luck and don't let it bother you.

Welcom furrymayo!

Ask the Panthers fans about the '30s, 40's, 50's, 60's, and 70's. No real history. Count the SB trophies the B&G have! Also count the NFL Championship from the early years! Ask "Is there a Panther's SB trophy?"

Where is the Famous Panther fight song? Can they cite the words?

Ask the older ones if they hit their head falling off of their previous bandwagon when the teal and black came to town!

That must have been a LONG time ago. . . . if I ever bet on the Redskins, which I don't, it certainly wouldn't be when we play the cowgirls.

Yeah it is a really wierd username; but I use it because my middle name (believe it or not) is Mayo.

BigSKINBauer · 11-03-2005, 06:40 PM

man, highschool kids today are dumbass bandwagon whores. I am not joking I live in redskins country and i even get shit for being a redskins fan. Everyone knows that i am definately one of the biggest fans in the school and i will be walking down the hall and people just yelling shit about me not wearing my redskins stuff after a loss or stupid stuff like that, i usually laugh it off or come up with something about there stupid ass teams like the eagles or steelers(so many darn steeler fans--why!?!?!?!?) this week i tell eagles that they will lose and steelers get it for winning by one but it seems like everyone is a bandwagon whore. Even people who act like redskins fans are fair weather fans and when i get into a discusion with a eagle fan it doesn't help that some so-called redskins fan comes up and says something stupid and then says the redskins suck.
This year it is easier but last year was rediculous.
