so if the Raiders were to go on a run this year and tons of bandwagons fans appear that discounts the loyal, insane fanbase they've had for years?


yes.

you have to have some measure to judge loyalty.

it cannot just be "i say this, you say that, etc etc" with no evidence to back up each claim.


Therefore, according to your "logic", the Red Sox do NOT have loyal fans because loads of people jumped on the bandwagon in 2004.

Do you realize how fricking retarded that is?

using that logic any historically shitty team should be considered the most loyal.

ill buy what espn is selling because obviously they are the only oulet here with any form of tangible evidence.

saints fans: ranked #15


Buying tickets =/= loyalty. Why? Well, some people just can't afford tickets, for starters.

You can not quantify loyalty. It's like trying to assign a numerical value to how much you love your girlfriend.

Oh, wait, you wouldn't understand that analogy...

Sold out crowd with a crap team, in 8 degree weather and a foot of snow. Pretty impressive considering how bad the Browns stink.


Thank you. People have to realize the cold weather in Cleveland, Buffalo, Chitown, etc is nothing to joke about. The winds off the lakes make it even colder, feels like needles are poking you in the skin if you don't have gloves, hat, BIG coats, layers of clothing, blankets etc on. You are loyal if you can sit 3-4hrs in that shite plus count tailgating, arriving to the game an hour early, etc. ANd like you said throw in a crappy team at that.lol.

I believe that Cleveland and Buffalo need to get more love, for sure. Def. top 5 loyal cities. I would also put Saints fans up there.

I dont get this. Right before the Superbowl era the Browns were in 10 straight NFL championship games and won 7 of them.

And the Jim Brown Browns won the NFL championship in 1964, beating Unitas' Colts 27-0

The real answer is Green Bay packers and all other pro franchises fall in behind them.

statistically speaking cincy and cleveland are more loyal than new orleans.

You mean the cincy fans that will not support a 4-1 Bengals team? They are reporting the game will be blacked out this week.

I base it on opinion.

You can NOT quantify loyalty any more than you can quantify love or any other emotional concept.

You're a fricking retard if you think otherwise.

I don't think it's that much of a stretch to say that New Orleans has a very loyal fanbase. They are much more loyal than our beloved LSU fanbase...


wow your delusional. LSU fans are way more loyal than saints fans. pre katrina, you didnt even know the saints existed being in Louisiana. games rarely sold out and you never saw people wearing saints stuff. It was so bad they were on a one way ticket out of NOLA. LSU, even when we were bad, has always had a large, loyal fan base. we just bitch a lot, but still support the team

No, son, you're delusional.

frick, man, I remember back in the 90s when Tiger Stadium looked like a Tulane game. But your patent lies about the Saints is just, well, damn son. Shoot yourself. Or don't ever set foot in Louisiana again.

LSU games have never looked as bad as tulane. the 90s had some bad times, but LSU's worst years attendence wise were never that bad based on statistic.

Yall are all saints homers. as someone who neither likes nor hates the saints and moved down here, its laughable to call your fans the most loyal when for years you rarely sold out games.

yes, you have some of the most loyal fans in the nfl, but as a whole you dont crack the top few IMHO.

Yes the Browns did win the AFL championship...numerous times with the great Jim Brown, but just ask people if they care, its all about Superbowls. The fact is that the Browns have never been to a Superbowl, the Cavs have never won and NBA title and the Tribe last won a MLB title in 1948.
