Boston sports fans. Cheering on the Jumbotron at the game when a fan said what he wanted most for Christmas was Danny Ainge fired ( before 2008) . The fans that gave more credit to Antoine yelling at team in bench than Pierce got scoring nearly every point in a historic comeback vs the nets. The fans who were more smart fans than Celtics fans. I love fans whose favorite team is the Celtics. But I think after that you get a lot of really dumb and annoying fans that really do a bad job of representing the fan base.
I mean, human beings are generally pretty dumb. We overrate ourselves due to our collective achievements, but without writing and opposable thumbs we'd still be banging rocks in a cave somewhere.
With that being said, Patriots fans and Red Sox fans are far worse than Celtics fans. Sox fans are just wildly negative and toxic. I don't know if it's a holdover from the "curse" or whatever, but they are never happy.
Pats fans have been playing the game on easy mode because of Brady and don't really understand the sport. IMO which is why there is so much confusion about why the team sucks right now. The fans, media, and team were all drinking the kool-aid for so long that scouting and accountability flew out the window. Now we're reaping the "rewards" of a decade of poor offensive drafting.
Suddenly everyone else is laughing at us and the smugness is gone. Honestly we kind if deserve it.
While I'm busy ranting I might as well bash on Bruins fans a bit. There is this annoying thing with hard-core hockey fans where they act as if hockey is the only "real" sport, and how the players are so much harder-working than anyone else. It's always struck me as being vaguely racist, and generally obnoxious.
Bruins fans also seem to put more blind faith in their club than oher fanbases. They're pretty resilient in the face of the incredible mental weakness the team has displayed in its many collapses. The Celtics have mirrored them in the last decade or so in this regard. But the C's have the excuse that their core has been developing/maturing.
When I express my concerns to other Bruins fans that the team is soft, I get blank stares.
