I say "we" when I talk about LSU, Saints and Pelicans. IDGAF what people think about it.

I started a thread similar to this a while back and got crucified, just like you are!

WE should be your school or former team, if you were actually on the team. If not, it’s not WE.

What about “we all think Johnny Jones was a good guy but a terrible basketball coach?”

I understand if you live in New Orleans and yell out "we won" after a game, or if you yell "we did it" when you are sitting in the stands during a game. But, in a supposedly thought out conversation about an out-of-town team, the use of "we" is annoying.


In that line of thinking, I guess wearing the team replica jerseys is off limits also, right? I mean they don't actually play on the team so why would they be wearing a jersey?

No, "we" didn't do anything. The Steelers did. "They" did.



Those people have been fans long before the players and coaches were there. Those people will be fans long after the players and coaches leave.

Saying we at any point for a sports team is just weird. Especially for college teams when you aren’t going or have a degree from the college.

No grown arse man should wear a replica jersey. High school and above, if you wear a jersey, it better be your own jersey.

It’s pretty handy that some men do though, clear sign who not to associate with.

Didn't you become a hobo and ride trains for a year?

Didn't you have a nice looking wife and you used to talk about sucking her toes, then she left you?

Those players and coaches are the we, the new team/coaches shouldn’t be talking shite about games won or lost by other people. Imagine playing high school ball and talking shite about a state championship won 8 years ago. You had nothing to do with that...
