So, let's say you have a kid ( ) and he becomes a Lakers fan the day after they won their last Championship.
One day he asks you how many they have and your answer would be "None to you, son but they have 8 to me and don't pay any attention to that ESPN show that says they have 16."
Way to fuck up your kid.

growing up talk was about
the Lakers, i just felt a connection when the Lakers i followed won the 1st ring, so yea 8 for my team
I'm sure 2nd generation of me will think his/her dads Lakers are great, but will be most proud when the team they follow wins while wearing Lakers 1985 shirt
Jani Lane and Bret Michaels should form a band called "Nelson II"

just for me as a fan of any sport or team, just no connection to the wins if i didn't follow the team when it was done
well then you're different than most, i never actually watched mike schmidt win a title, i became a fan in 83 2 years later, but i can appreciate the fact that it was the franchises first ring, i also enjoyed the shit out of watching the giants preserve the dolphins perfect season, aint nothing wrong with bragging about your teams history.
LAglamrocker wrote:not for me, i choose a team someday, i dont consider them "wins"
i become a Bulls fan friday, "hey look we got 6 rings", history yes, as a fan no
Again, you're the only idiot who thinks that way.
Being a fan has nothing to do with a franchises history.
No matter when you were born, who you are a fan of or not the Celtics have 17 titles, period.
You're not a fan of the Celtics, how many titles do they have?

have done tons of stories about fathers and sons being fans of the same team. They always bring up how special it is when the sons or daughters "team" wins and is special to them. The kids always comment of how they feel like the team they follow did something and can join in the conversation about champions of their generation
LA media does this story from Dodger stadium and Staples every year

That's all good but that was never a point in the conversation.
I said the Celtics have 17 Championships, you countered with uh,uh, you were alive for only 4 of them so the other 13 magically disappeared off the face of the Earth which is bullshit.

Yeah, well, my team took out Dr. J in the Finals. In his prime. We also had a guy who probably roadied for the Grateful Dead during the off-season as our Center.
