LOL im only 14 here! Lay off ok. Does it matter how old I am? No. I made that comment and dont regret it. MOST Cardinals fans are bandwagoneers. When they win people say "We won Oh yeah were good" When we lose everyone gets down on em. PICK A SIDE!

Please stay a Cowboys fan then. We don't want half your loyalty. You started this thread ripping on people who are up, then down on the team. That's all we need is you coming in here with "My Cards suck, but at least my Cowboys won" or vice versa.

Please tell us you're kidding.

It is okay to be a fan and be up on your team when they're doing well and down on them when they're not doing so well. That has nothing to do with being a bandwagon fan, that's just life. Most of us diehards want the team to win so badly that the wins are like a drug and the losses are like withdrawal. A bandwagon fan would stop being a Cards fan altogether when the team was not doing well, but jump right back on if they began winning. You have your terms mixed up. You're just upset because people are being critical of the team when they lose? That's a lot of what sports is about. Get used to it.

Im not talking to you die hard fans. Im talking to the bandwagoners on the radio and a few on here. Die Hard fans are great. Im a DIE Hard Cowboy fan. I would support my home town team IF Bidwell sold the team and made it somewhat competitive, which wont happen. So Im not going to support the Cards. I was hoping the NFL would send a message to Bidwell, and not give Arizona the Super Bowl. According to ESPN Bidwell was the worst Owner EVER. The NFL needs to send a message to him. Whenever I got to Cardinals games, we get the tickets for free, is because of the food and the opponents. (I went to a Cards V Cowboys and a Raiders Vs Cards Preseason). I wouldnt even pay $1 for a ticket to see a game. Thats my opinion. Im not saying all Cards fans are Bandwagoners, but just about 40% of them. Im just tired of the we won, we lost we suck! Picka side and stick to it!

Ok, you are partially right in my opinion. But its ok to praise/bash your team Yearly, but not weekly like people do here in Arizona. Im just tired of it. Ive always been down on the Cardinals, and could care less if they relocated.

So why do you post on a messageboard where 90% of the posters are Cardinals fans?

BidWILL BidWILL BidWILL

Spell the guys name right, it's not that hard.

And why wouldn't you NOT want a Super Bowl held here in Arizona? Oh, gee I forgot, your only a little punk kid that doesn't think about the benefits that a Super Bowl brings to this state.

OHHHH AHHHH! ESPN says Bidwill is the worst owner! Can you even think of anything original?

You keep saying that you are a die hard cowpunk fan, but that you would jump ship if "BIDWILL" would sell the team. That my friend is a band wagon fan, you only want it one way. We real die hard fans don't care who owns the team we care about the players, coaches, and our faithful brothers who follow this team through thick and thin. When we do start winning we don't want your type to jump on our wagon.

The sad thing is they will and we'll still be on his board and instead of bitching about players, coaches, GMs, etc, we'll be complaining about the fans. It should be fun.

It's kind of like when you follow a local band that makes it big. You're happy for the band, but it sucks that instead of paying $5 at the door and having a beer with the drummer after the show, you're shelling out $50 to ticketmaster and fighting a parking lot full of traffic after the concert.

Wow. That is the most succinct summation of how I will feel when the cardinals win the superbowl that I have ever heard.

Nice job Pariah.

Umm, there's a Cards bandwagon? Where?

I find most fans -- of any team -- are usually up on their team when they are winning and down on them when they are losing. If your team has a really bad game, then true fans vent their frustrations. If your team wins, you hope they can keep the momentum going. That's not bandwagon, it's just the way it is. Just because we bash the Cards for losing 44 to 6 to THE BROWNS doesn't mean we are no longer fans.

And, if you REALLY want to talk about bandwagon fans, take a look at your fellow Cowboys fans. They have been MIA for three years and now they're reappearing everywhere.
