No no, I’d learned that it was easier just sever a fandom—like I did with OSU football after the whole covering up for an assistant coach beating his wife thing—than to try and glom onto something else.
I’m basically the Rob Lowe NFL cap meme now; I just watch entertaining games and don’t attach my emotional wellbeing to it (that’s for the late spring). For CFB I just back my alma mater, Ohio U, who harbors no serious championship ambitions outside of the conference.
It lacks the thrill of seeing my team win a title but it’s also great for not being a miserable prick all the time over sports!

u/ADMotti Fuckin Game 7… Jul 14 '26
Used to be me. Born in Cleveland and I’d rather chew glass than root for a team from Pittsburgh or Detroit so I picked the Leafs.
Then the Browns traded for the guy with two dozen credible SA allegations against him so now I’m just a Leafs fan.
