Here are my sports fan stereotypes:
1. Soccer. Nobody living in the USA outside of DC actually likes soccer. Soccer fans are either foreigners, recent immigrants, or Americans who think that "DC is such an amazing city because it's sooooo international." Soccer fans tend to be overly critical of American foreign policy, no matter which Party is in office.
2. Baseball. Baseball fans are "deathly boring". They would be content to sit in a field and watch cattle graze for hours. They are the fans most likely to wear polo shirts, or polo shirts with t-shirts underneath.
3. Basketball. Basketball fans typically live in PG County, or east of 14th Street. They watch BET and spend lots of money on gold chains and Tommy Hillfinger gear.
4. Hockey: Hockey fans are northern rednecks. They wear dated hairstyles. DC hockey fans tend to be from the VA suburbs, go to JAXX at least three times a year, and have an oversized $120 Jaromeer Jagr jersey in their closet that they don't weay anymore.
5. NASCAR. NASCAR fans are basically southern hockey fans. Though they're more likely (than hockey fans) to own three Brooks and Dunn cassettes, and an undersized Dale Earnhardt t-shirt that they wear every day of every weekend.
6. Football. Football fans are usually former fraternity members who still go back to their old frat house for years and years after they graduate from college, so they can drink beer from a keg, and try to fuck college girls.
6. The I love them all (1-6) fan. These people are what are known as "blockheads." They are also likely to feel that U2 and Green Day are bands of unquestionable integrity.

You gotta love it when the NASCAR fan starts calling the NHL fans "unrefined."
Just out of curiosity, which major sports league attracts all the "refined" fans? USTA? PBA?
Originally posted by Julian, faux celeb-porn CONNOISSEUR:Whatever rating you give your "material", all I'm inferring is a direct judgement or comment is uncool. If you must, then jab the whole fanbase or respond to comments. (I don't think the formite said they were a fan). By the way, what grade material is it when you flood a message board? :p

Originally posted by Sugartastic:Well, I was rating material based on the amount of wit, how clever the wordplay is, and how biting the satire is, so by that scale, probably pretty low since any idiot can flood a message board if he/she has a posse. However, looking at it from another perspective, it's hard to question the sheer demoralizing effectiveness of someone logging on their favorite messageboard only to see the entire first 3 pages be filled with poorly spelled, all CAPS posts informing them they are "TEH FAGGOT." But again, that would seem utter overkill if the intent was just to blast one isolated moron who likes Hanson.

Not really a Hanson fan. I have listened to their records, but I can take their music or leave it. It's pretty vanilla. The point being: their music is not offensive and it's not just over-produced pop crap. Whereas Mr. Flowers and his ilk, blatant rip-off artists, now THAT's offensive.
And Kosmo, I'm with you. Too many times people here jump all over new posters…..flexing their Internet bully muscles. Must make them feel better about themselves, somehow.

Oh, and sonick is quite the looker. :p

Like you, jumping all over the Killers, who were not even part of the conversation until you started tossing insults their way. Must make you feel better, your freaking internet bully. I know your harsh words about the Killers are going to make Julian, Sonic, and me cry all weekend.

I thought one of the Westlife guys was already out, or was that Boyzone?

I love Fridays. They're almost as good as presale days.

I haven't read anything from this thread yet, but you just know when you check in midday to the forum after only a day off and there's a 3 page thread on Hanson, it's gonna be good.
:D

Originally posted by Julian, faux celeb-porn CONNOISSEUR:Difference between bashing the band and bashing the people who post here. Sure Radiohead sucks, but I don't call Sonick a stupid loser ass for liking them (JUST an example, sonick, I don't even think RH sucks…much).
I must take deference with dear Kosmo and side with Rhett. The statement was mildly amusing, and entirely neccessary: sure, we could be the message board that doesn't bash people who want to attend Hanson shows, but would we want to be? What is the cost of niceness? Our very souls?
By the by, I feel certain that Rhett and Celeste made a conscious decision to lob some grenades today, just for fun. Celeste hasn't been around in ages but posted a supportive message just minutes after Rhett called someone a juvenile and nasty name…
