Hello, my name is BassNBrew and (1 Viewer)

Plenty of coach seats are available on the Jaguars bandwagon. However, I'm not sure you'd be too happy with a wagon that has steering problems and routinely finds the bumpiest ride available.
The homer in me wants to invite you to root for a team that has more SB appearances than losing seasons over the last 30+ years.If you're looking for a non-homer vote, I'm really liking what I'm seeing out of Houston. Although, I suppose that's still something of a homer vote, since they're Denver South and all.

Actually, Jacksonville's a pretty nice team to cheer for. I'm not a fan, but I still catch a couple of games a year because, hey, how many other teams can you see live for $20 and never worry about them being sold out?
 
9) Your team's defensive coordinator would be the perfect candiate to run a pro-bowl defense.
Needed to elaborate on this...I meant that your DC thinks blitzing is against the rules and that this is touch football.
 
You guys that cheer for teams that allowed you to get to the numbers of things he didn't want in a team are lucky. I couldn't even get past the introduction paragraph, where he says "the ownership/coaches have a clue".

But there's tons of room on the Lions badnwagon. Just know that Matt Millen is driving it, and to be honest, I don't think he could drive his finger up his own ###, so proceed with caution (many sharp turns ahead --- trust me)
Because his head is already there?
 
I'm accepting bandwagon invitations to any team that that plays decent football. You don't necessarily have to play championship caliber ball, just provide some entertainment and some ray of hope that the ownership/coaches have a clue. Please remove yourself from consideration if your team meets any of the following criteria:

1) Your team signs the human sack magnet as your backup QB. Seneca Wallace - elusive.

2) Your team reaches for the yellow pages and finds an upgrade at QB under the retirement home heading. There they find a QB that you used to bust on Chase about being over the hill back in the Cheetsheet.net days. Last upgrade was Hasselbeck-not ancient.

3) Your team burns a draft pick on a kick returner and ends up starting a fullback slower than yours truly as your return man. No such silliness.

4) Your team banks on a guy who gets a concussion when the wind exceeds 5 mph as your starting middle LB. Lofa Tatupu, so NO.

5) Your punter is your best player. Not in the top 10.

6) Your team goes out of it's way to keep the ball away from the most explosive player in the league and leaves the second most explosive player on the team on the bench. :confused: I think extra credit is in order for having the D shut down Mr. Smith 2 years ago -but they did go out of their way to do so

7) Your team's best pass rusher hasn't even touch the opposing QB this year. Not likely.

8) Your team hired it's offensive coordinator from a juggernaut offense like the 06 Browns. The Walrus? dynamic ofenses.

9) Your team's defensive coordinator would be the perfect candiate to run a pro-bowl defense. I think the Seahawks have shown creative defense in #6 above

10) Your team never wins a home game. Loudest stadium in the league, yet outdoors. Luke Pettigout is still false starting.
Seahawks are your hookup.
 
The Cleveland Browns. Plus, you can even watch them in the playoffs this year. Their schedule is a joke. double digit wins guaranteed.

6 Oct 14 MIA @ CLE - Win

7 Bye

8 Oct 28 CLE @ STL - Win

9 Nov 04 SEA @ CLE - Win

10 Nov 11 CLE @ PIT - lose

11 Nov 18 CLE @ BAL - lose

12 Nov 25 HOU @ CLE - win

13 Dec 02 CLE @ ARI - Win

14 Dec 09 CLE @ NYJ - Win

15 Dec 16 BUF @ CLE - Win

16 Dec 23 CLE @ CIN - lose - already beat them once in a shoot out.

17 Dec 30 SF @ CLE - Win

If you want to root for other possible AFC Playoff teams, root for Jax & Tenn. 2 of these 3 will be wild cards.

No fair weather fans permitted on our bandwagon. Please go find someone else to choose because you are either a fan or not, you just jump on when the times are good.

Drink more Guinness and your team will become more enjoyable...even during the tuff times.

I was going to say, jump on the Jags bandwagon, because somebody has to care that they're 3-1.

Exactly. When I moved from Virginia to San Diego in 2002, I was able to see several games a year for nothing. Now that they're good, it's tough to make it to more than 1 game per year, even though it's a 10 minute drive to Qualcomm from my pad.
 
I'd like to offer an unofficial invitation to join the Colts bandwagon. There's plenty of room now that the Patriots are the best team ever. Just ask Chase. :mellow:

This is the way I understood this. And that describes Ted Cottrell to a 'T', IMHO.So again, the Chargers are not the team for you.

Yeah, that would exclude the Chargers.Best of luck BnB!
 
Dangit! The Super Chargers were high on my list!!!
:lmao: You made the rules. If you can somehow get Ted fired you'd be back on track. Then again, I think Ted's working that angle pretty effectively on his own right now.Maybe the Texans are the team for you? They seem to meet your criteria and could probably use some more fans.

Nobody in the league blitzes less than the Colts, though. This also excludes the Bears and Buccaneers, too.
 
I'm glad to see there are others that are questioning their allegiance to a former team and looking for a new one. I am also. I have always loved the redskins, but management/ownership is making me dislike them more and more each time they try to do something.

Ahhh, you need a little pick me up. It's ok, times have been rough and Danny boy is not putting his hand in the cookie jar anymore. This past off-season showed how they played a more low key role in all the free agency affairs. Add that we finally have much more stability in the coaching department. Granted it's still not all peaches and roses, but who would have thought we see a day like today some eight years ago? Also, once you bleed Burgandy & Gold...you can't bleed anything else. Now for your pick me up:Hail to the Redskins!

Hail Victory!

Braves on the Warpath!

Fight for old D.C.!

Run or pass and score -- we want a lot more!

Beat 'em, Swamp 'em,

Touchdown! -- Let the points soar!

Fight on, fight on 'Til you have won

Sons of Wash-ing-ton. Rah!, Rah!, Rah!

Hail to the Redskins!

Hail Victory!

Braves on the Warpath!

Fight for old D.C.!

I can still remember seeing the stands at RFK bouncing with all the fans screeming and singing. Keep the faith, it's the evil that is trying to pull you away.

Joining the Cowboys bandwagon now gives you rights to "I liked them before they beat the Pats" schtick after this weekend.
:shrug:That's about par for that course. There are certainly some devoted Cowboys fans, but that bandwagon as a whole is the NFL clown car.
 
i went through your dilemma a little over a year ago. it's not fun and you'll feel plenty of guilt, but you'll be better off for it.

i grew up a dolphins fan (from NC. never could get into the panthers at all). every fiber in my being was against jumping ship, but i couldn't take it any more. i couldn't stand watching them. hated every move they made. hated every time they'd go give away a 2nd round pick for 4th string QB or RB. every thing about them disgusted me. sports is entertainment and being a dolphins fan was just nauseating. i only hung on b/c of my dear love of dan marino (the memory of him). i feel like i tried, but it wasn't going to work.

so, i divorced my team. i know i can't go back and i am perfectly fine with that. they wasted many good sports years of my life. pissing away dan's prime and pissing away the years after dan. i'll never be going back.

i fell in love with the jacksonville jaguars (i grew to hate the 'phins so much, i even forgave the jags for beating marino 62-7 in his final game ever). there are a million reasons to love this team, but i won't try to sell you on it. if you're going to marry a new team, it's got to be for your reasons. you must let it happen naturally. i didn't choose the jags, they chose me. watching MJD and freddy rack up 300 rushing yards on the colts (i've always hated the colts), they made it hard to resist. i proposed on a monday night, against the giants i think, when david garrard (they were wearing the black on black unis) got popped in the mouth on a 3rd and 8 with the game on the line and he refused to go down and scrambled for the 1st down.

You got it easyI'm a Bills fan :rolleyes:
 
Congratulations you are Brown's fan #187. We haven't had this many fans since Art Model moved the team. Things have really picked up this year. Warning though, us old-timers tend to make fun of you newbie fans in the triple digits. As a plus, you can make fun of those Panther fans for making one of our cast-offs an offensive coordinator.

There's a difference between less and never. A consideration should also be made when your D line is anchored by the greatest athlete ever to grace the football field and he can manage to miss tackling an aniquated Jeff Garcia headed straight for him at a range of about 9 to 12 inches.
 
Vinny actually looked decent yesterday. Nothing too exotic but managed the game very well. I still think Indy puts 40 up on this defense but the rest of the season isn't as bad as people are making it out to be. They should keep Vinny at QB (extra 2 weeks to work on the play book) and put Williams as the lone RB (Another crucial fumble by Foster - although I think it got overturned, it was a fumble). Besides the NFC is so crappy 9-7 will probably take the division.
