Good to see one that sees through the BS. In my jubilation, I can't help but share this. Again, I apologize if this is in the wrong place. But I'm in a rush and id like to share this before I head out. Happy Labor Day, everyone!

Our smack members prove the fan portion of that video to be 100% truth.

Halfway through, I'd say at least 50% of them would be Patriot fans (or whoever happens to be winning Super Bowls at the time).

Exactly brother. When you win championships, you build a national brand. Winning = more money. I honestly think Mike wants to win, but he's far more obsessed with getting a good deal than winning. 


Exactly what I was thinking. A decade like the 90's would shrink that national fan base by at least 50%. They're on for the ride because they know it's a good organization that's likely to always compete. They're not loyal to that city or the colors or history. They're loyal to a good team and the good feelings and bragging rights that come with consistent success. Take that away and they'd scatter like roaches.

Thanks so much for this Pat, made my year. Dude definately looks at the team without rose colored glasses LMAO!

Crazy how true all this is and coming from a Pittsburgh native makes me look at atleast a couple of their fans a little different.

Loved how he tore into their fan base haha

Also cannot wait for when they become the Browns of the next generation, it just may be close. Lots of great points about the Pig
going down soon, Bell being a ******* and AB being a cancer. Could definately happen. Major reps Pat, awesome!
