Any other football fans get annoyed by this?? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Okay, so basically you follow a team all year right?? You root for them, you celebrate when they win, you suffer when they lose, and it is obvious that you are a true, real deal, dedicated fan. Then, the SuperBowl comes along, and your team is playing, and you're watching the game with a bunch of people who know absolutely nothing about the sport, who only watch one game a year, and that of course is the SuperBowl. Now here's the part that's annoying. Don't you hate it when these people who know absolutely nothing about the game, constantely root for the team that you're rooting against every single year?? That's not even so bad actually, what really annoys me, is how vocal they get while rooting for the opposing team, and how they'll celebrate when that other team scores, or makes a great play, and mock you, when your team messes up, basically pretending to know something about the game, or that they really even care, when in reality, they're really only celebrating because they know it annoys you?? This bugs the hell out of me!! Last year, I got so annoyed with all the fake hooting and hollering that went on when the Seahawks were getting beat, that I couldn't even watch the game with this particular person anymore. I ended up going down to my room and watching the game by myself. I even turned up my fan full blast, just so I wouldn't have to hear all the fake celebrating, but I still heard all the hooting and hollering. And when the game ended, and my team lost, oh my gosh, forget about it. It sounded like it was 12:00 am, on New Years Eve up there!! LOL!! I'm surprised they didn't light fireworks, with how happy they sounded that my team lost.

Anyway, this person I'm speaking of, has lived with us for over 6 years now, and hasn't once rooted for the team I was rooting for in the SuperBowl.

Do any of you other dedicated fans have to deal with this kind of stuff each year at the SuperBowl, or during the regular season??:

I usually watch with friends or family who KNOW the sport and usually root for who I root for.
