IMHO, nothing worse then a fair weather fan.
I went through 13 straight losing years with Purdue Football, and the Pacers never made it out of the first round (if they made the playoffs which wasn’t that often) but I was still rooting for them as much as I do now.
Losing is part of sports, if you can't handle the bad years then you have no reason to be rooting for them in the good years.
The only team I ever "gave up" on was the Colts in the mid 1990’s, and not because they had bad years, (I was use to having bad years) but because they was trying to leave Indy and every time they had a good player they released him or traded him for nothing in return, or hired the worst coach they could find. Now that they are locked into Indy for the next 30 years, and have Dungy and I am proud to say I am once more a Colts fan, win or lose.
As for the Bills being “losers” name one other team in history that has won their conference 4 years in a row. I may make jokes to GG about them, but I think that team was one of the better dynasties in football and not anywhere close to “losers”
As Sir Moby said, only the 1972 Dolphins have never lost a game, so that makes all the other teams in the NBA, NFL, NHL, MLB losers when compared to them.
