Anybody complaining about fair-weather fans is just bitter because of jealousy or some kinda idleness. It really shouldn't bother anyone enough to comment.
Any team that Lebron James joined was going to get thousands of new fans, not just in Miami but all over the world.
That's nonsense. Bandwagon fans irritate all diehard fans... even here on the forum it used to have a setta "waggonist" talk. It is particularly irritating when some Heat fans want to carry on about the team when it obvious they really not that passionate about the team... or even the game. I rooted for the Heat but me eh no Heat fan. Having seen the way some of these Heat fans carry on they deserve to get called out.
People can be passionate about their city though.
I'm a bandwagon fan. I didn't watch much before 2010. I live here in Miami and I reserve the right to enjoy the play of any local team, or anything Miamian, at any point in time that I choose. If that irritates someone that is damn funny to me, and I feel a little sorry for them.
There are people who don't live in Miami and never followed the team and now pretend that they did, maybe that category of fan is what bothers people the most.
can't stand them..they are lebron or maybe d wade fans (ain't nobody like bosh, sorry). as soon as king james leaves south beach (nex 2 seasons max) u will hear them. one of my fellow knicks fans put up a pic of some heat player from back in the day on his instagram and ask heat fans to tell him who it is...since last week i ent see one of them answer...steups
What's wrong with being a lebron or wade fan? To back lebron or wade you MUST also be a Heat fan?
I doh get that one.
So what yall think about when Miami travels and the locals show up in Heat gear? That is real kicks.
