You actually just overcomplicated it for everyone, so allow me to simplify it. If you go out of your way to proclaim that you don't care about your school competing in x sport, then you are a coward. You don't have to live and die with every round of women's golf or men's water polo to show that you care. Never did I mention such a requirement in the original post, but since people are neanderthals who view everything through the lens of how they watch football, the original post was misunderstood. Next time, I'll be sure to dumb it down for everyone

The hard truth is other than football (and in some cases men's basketball) most people don't care too much about losing in other sports.

But the majority also like it when their school wins at anything and are happy/proud of their wins.

To me, I'd only say I care about a sport if losing bothers me to some degree. Just because I like it when UGA wins an equestrian title doesn't mean I care about the sport.

And yeah, I might enjoy going to a UGA baseball game. I've enjoyed many Braves baseball games over the years. But I don't really care if the Braves win either. It's just fun to watch a game sometimes. I like to see the Braves do well. I'm not really bothered at all when they suck.
