Since I'm not really a dedicated sports fan I feel like I can say this. What is with all of the "Sunny Day Fans"? You know, the ones that never mention a particular team or a game until a Championship is won, then all at once they are die hard, team color bleeding fans.

The recent NCAA Championship win for the Kentucly Wildcats is a perfect example of what I am speaking of in this blog post. I don't think I have seen so many "Sunny Day Fans" come creeping out of the woodwork to claim victory as I have with this Championship win.

Every water cooler conversation and facebook status update is inundated with comments like "That's MY team, That's My Boys, My Team is awesome, My team this and My team that and so on. I find it to be quite hypocritical myself, but hey who am I to say. This is just my most recent observation that I just had to blog about.
Going one more step on this topic is the "fans" that in their undying attempt to defend the chaotic actions of their fellow cheerleading fans they rant and rave with such vulgarity and hate that they remove any chance of being thought of as a respectable fan that they are trying to be in defense of in the first place.

I believe Mark Twain said it best, "Better to keep your mouth closed and be thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt".
