Can we officially retire the BWord?

[Johnny Cupcakes]

I don’t call them the Bungles. That’s what division opponents call the team to degrade them and paint them as an inferior trash franchise. Even if that has seemed like the truth for large amounts of the history of my fandom, I’m still not about to ally with Steelers and Browns fans to make fun of the team.

But, if you wanna do it, have at it. Who am I to tell you how to “root” for your team.

I wonder if Steelers fans call their team the Stoolers? Ratbirds with the Ravens? I wonder if Browns fans say “if it’s Brown, flush it down.”. I’m genuinely curious. Is the self degradation thing common with all teams’ fanbases?
