I am Ohio State Alum and I would never claim Burrow as a Buckeye. I love this spin cycle for Buckeye fans though... Eagles and 49ers fan bases are awful. I am all in with the Chiefs and the Great Cleveland Native Travis Kelce... I don't think it is a big deal though if you root for the Bungles that is your business. I won't after living in Columbus for 6 years and getting knocked out cold outside a Reds Indians game outside Hooters after claiming to be a minor league player and jokingly hitting on some meathead's friend in like 2000 or 2001.
My wife is a member of the Eagles fanbase.
Just because they booed Santa Claus, got into a fight with a Sixers PF in a Redskins jersey and burned Jerry Jones in effigy and then barbecued a rat over the flames in the 700 level at the old Veterans Stadium doesn't make them awful. What other team had anything like Eagles Court?
Going to games at the Linc is an experience, especially if it's the Cowboys or Giants.
It's actually a great fanbase for a player if you play hard, have some success and pledge your loyalty to the team and fans, who, in fact, do hold everyone accountable. Cleveland Native Jason Kelce is beloved in Philly.
On the other hand if your Ben Simmons or Carson Wentz your ass will be run out of town.
I've lived here over ten years and I'm slowly adopting the local attitude. If you're a bum then get off my team. Applies to owners, GMs, coaches, players, Santa Claus (he was drunk and deserved to be booed) - although I probably wouldn't be looking to pick a fight with the likes of Mike Scott.
F the Bengals though, although I'd prefer them to the Niners.
