So what s wrong with being a player fan first and then a team fan?

[livinglegend]

What s wrong with supporting a player throughout his career and staying loyal to him wherever he goes? I am a Lebron fan first and then a Miami Heat fan.
Why members on this forum act like being a player fan first is a bad thing?

The people who criticize this so called (stanism) are also player stans but are jealous beacause their player sucks.

you chase around another man wherever he goes. loser.

Nothing particularly wrong with being a beta male. Just the way you are.

I am not asking advice. I just want to know why members on here hate the player only fans a lot.

Probably because often they make stupid-ass threads.

LeBron fan first, Heat fan second.

Don't know i've ever heard something so stupid. You are just a LeBron fan. If he went to the Bobcats you'd be a bobcat fan second.

So much fail in this thread

They actually act like player only fans are 'morally' wrong.
I dont get their logic.

Who cares?
It has nothing to do with the topic.

You re right, id be a Bobcats fan second because I am a Lebron fan. Anything wrong with that?

Do I need to explain? You follow around a grown man, worshiping the ground he walks on.

Well, that's the issue I have with player-first fans. What do they do when said player retires? Just latch onto another player? Maybe I don't understand, but I see no enjoyment in that.

Also, it's a lot more gratifying (IMO) to stick with a team as it drafts and rebuilds into a solid team instead of following the best player in the world around, as he instantly makes whichever team he joins a contender Where's the satisfaction in that? Do you want to see another man succeed that much?
