Definition of bandwagon fans

Recommended Posts

I'm pretty sure we have a pretty ugly bandwagon fanbase here in Carolina. It's been pretty evident recently. No one cared about the Panthers in the beginning of the season...but everyone's all excited towards the end "Omg we're good this year let's go win the superbowl, yeah!" and then we lose "GET RID OF ALL THE COACHES AND JAKE DELHOMME AND THE DEFENSE ARRGH THE PANTHERS SUCK WE'RE GOING TO BE 1-15 FOR THE NEXT THREE SEASONS."

We don't really have much of a right to accuse other teams of having bandwagon fans.

The Cardinal couldn't even sell out their first playoff game, yet for this Sundays game they sold out all their tickets in 6 minutes.

Yeah, how dare all those people not want to pay to see a team that lost all those games at the end, and lets not mention how bad the economy has made it for people.

(for what I have in bold)

Yea it is obvious your new here and don't know what your talking about, either that or you must hang out with some sh*tty people IRL.

"no one cared about the panthers in the beginning of the season"-

Maybe you didn't , but most of us been here all year on this PANTHERS FORUM.

Man your a dumbass.......

What you just put has nothing to do with being a fair weather fan.

You seriously must have NO idea what it means still, please go look it up.

A fair weather fan wouldn't care who was on the squad or who the coach was, they would go start rooting for the next team.

Thank you for being dramatic and immature and calling me a dumbass for a completely valid comment. I've been here since the beginning rooting hard just like I'm sure tons of people on this forum have. I'm talking more about the city in general, people who couldn't have told you our record in the first half of the season, but were in love with the team before the game Saturday night. I don't know about you but I know tons of those people.

And the rest of my post can apply to the people on the forum. One bad game and people think that all the sudden, forget that we had a successful 12-4 regular season, the Panthers are screwed and won't be good until half of the organization is fired and replaced. That is band wagon, that is fair weather.

No it isn't ROFL, so your saying every Eagle fan is a fair weather fan, and a band wagon fan?

Dood you have NO clue what your talking about.

Here ill help you since you need it,

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=fair+weather+fan

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=bandwagon%20fan

Show me where it says ANYTHING about wanting to change personnel or coaches, or bitching or complaining, or anything of that nature.

Your just making sh*t up, otherwise.

Fairweather and Bandwagon are just different ways to say "disloyal" which is exactly what I'm saying. It's called a synonym

By the way, next time you're trying to make a point in an argument you probably shouldn't reference urban dictionary as your source.

    • Congratulations do they know who the father is?
    • In my opinion Fitterer was probably right about not paying McCaffrey. Now not wanting to "pay RBs" in my opinion isn't something you want to set in stone, to me it all comes down to the individual.
    • Maybe I'm just not understanding, but everywhere that I have read says that signing bonuses go against the cap prorated by as much as five years. The following example uses Andrew Luck's rookie contract as an example. "Take Andrew Luck, the first overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft. Luck signed a four-year contract with the Colts worth $22.1 million and included a $14.5 million signing bonus. Rather than a $14.5 million cap hit in 2012, the Colts spread out his signing bonus over the life of his contract. The hit against the cap would be $3.625 million per year over four years instead of a direct cap hit of $14.5 million directly in 2012. This gave the Colts more leverage and cap flexibility in signing other players." https://www.the33rdteam.com/nfl-signing-bonuses-explained/ I don't know why some of you think that signing bonuses aren't counted against the cap over the length of the contract, but whatever.   "The bonus with a signing is usually the most garish aspect of a rookie contract. Bonus is the immediate cash players receive when they ink a deal. It factors into the cap, but only for the whole contract duration, in terms of salary cap calculations. In the case of Bryce Young’s $24.6 million signing bonus, that’s prorated to approximately $6.15 million per season over a four-year deal. This format allows teams to handle the cap and provides rookies with some short-term fiscal stability, which is important given the high injury risk in this league." https://collegefootballnetwork.com/how-rookie-contracts-work-in-the-nfl/ I understand how signing bonuses can be a useful tool in order to manage the cap, and as one of the article suggests, signing bonuses may become important if you have a tight cap, but the bill is always going to come due. I'm not necessarily referring to you Tuka, but it seems to me that others simply don't want to understand that fact which is why they're reacting to what I'm saying negatively. How odd. In any event, I have a better general understanding of why signing bonuses are used now, and it's generally to fit salaries under the cap. Surely players, whether they be rookies or not, love a signing bonus because they get a good portion of their money up front. This in turn gives them more security and probably amounts to tax benefits as well. I also understand why teams would not want to use signing bonuses, particularly for players or draftees who have a higher probability of being gone before a contract even ends.
