No really, read this article about how much fans that refer to their favorite team as "we" annoys me.
Most experienced fans will skirt around that sort of association with their teams, understanding that their chances of being “we” passed up back when they were in high school and the only team they could make was the one that had positions like the “rook” and “bishop.”
The only time you’ll catch them saying “we” is about three beers into a deep conversation with an opposing fan about somebody’s on-base percentage and their chances of making the postseason. Meanwhile, the person dropping “we” like it’s going to get them into the hottest night club, is using it to refer to how pretty “their” uniforms look.
The biggest perps... Mariner fans. Unless of course you're talking about this season then you get the ol' "oh, I really don't follow baseball" excuse. Ha!
