>be fan of perenially shitty team
>year after year of last place embarassments
>finally they start getting good
>they finally go to the 'offs for the first time in god knows how many years
>you celebrate and cry years of joy because you literally forgot how a competitive team feels like
>all the good teams fans make fun of you for celebrating doing something their team does on a yearly basis
>>64696486
> they finally go to the 'offs for the first time in
god knows how many years

>>64696486
>be casual
>support local team who's one of the dynasties

>>64696486
>go to the 'offs
Nope don't know this feel
>rooting for good teams
What does this feel like?
>>64696486
>mfw this perfectly describes what patsfags do
>>64696486
>be born
>become aware of football, as well as the fact that your family always goes to football games
>see your dad cheer for a team, so you cheer for it too even though they seem to always suck
>find out your grandfather who you never met because he died before your birth cheered for them too
>fans of another team from another nearby city shit on your team in perpetuity
>one odd year, they make it to the Owl, and your dad, who could take so many people who'd probably get more out of it chooses to take you
>your team gets curb stomped in the Owl
>they play like complete shit for the following 6-7 seasons
>throughout this entire time you still go to every game with your family
>suddenly the team is in the playoffs nearly every season
>every year they can't make it back to the Owl
>the first few years are heartbreaking, but after enough years, you learn to expect the disappointment and it stops hurting
>after a season when the team set a regular season record the head coach is terminated
>from that season forward the team trends downward
>despite this, you still go to every home game with your family and cheer because you give a shit
>one day you wake up to hear that the team is considering moving away to another city
>not just any city either, but the city where those other fans were from who always shit on your team
>the owner justifies his wanting to move by saying 25% of his business is located in that city as though in his mind 25 is a bigger number than 75
>one day, as you're going to sleep, you see they have formally applied to move to that city, and in that moment you realize that this organization that has made you laugh, and cry, and scream, and sigh just doesn't give the smallest fuck about you or anything you've ever done on its behalf
>Tfw can't have just one playoff win

This, friend, is why you choose a college team to actually care about. Caring about an NFL team is like falling in love with a hooker.

Why does it hurt so much? Making the playoffs should be a great thing
