Let me know if you’ve heard this before.

The Washington Redskins are hapless. They’re a bumbling, horrible mess. Just plain old damn terrible.

After giving their fan base hope of a better future over the course of the past two seasons, the Redskins are back to their incompetent nature. They have regressed to the mean.

Fandom 101: Rooting for a Bad Team

bagheads

Happy Monday, digital friends.

This is the first post in an ongoing series I’m calling Fandom 101. For years, the people have been clamoring for a prophet to come down from on high and tell them how to enjoy sports the correct way. Who better to give the gassy, bloated, knuckle dragging public what they want than a gassy, bloated blogger from the coast?

We’re right in the middle of the NFL Playoffs, so there’s clearly no better time to reach out to those fans stuck supporting bottom feeders. Let’s talk about how to root for a bad team.
