Try and draw a distinction between sports fandom and an entire population of people and it's culture. They're not the same.

But based on your comment, ("at every turn he puts us down") victimhood is in your programming. I don't think someone like you could change if he tried and the beauty of it is this. You won't try.

If louisiana football fans stopped feeling sorry for themselves, they'd be alot less interesting.

I have a question and I hope people don't think I am being rude because I am not.

Is it a Catholic thing?

Hear me out.

What I mean by that is I visited Boston in 2001 and noticed how so many folks up there felt like they were cursed even though the Celtics were one of the all time great sports franchises. Of course this was before the curse of the Bambino was broken, and the Pat's hadn't won anything.

And not necessarily just cursed, but also like they knew they were going to have bad luck or even that the deck was stacked against them.

I though maybe since Boston is largely Roman Catholic, as is New Orleans and I would guess at least the southern part of the state if not the majority of Louisiana, maybe it is more of a thing to believe in stuff like that among Catholics. I don't know, just asking.




Just looked up the demographics and Protestants outnumber Catholics 2-1 in LA, so I guess that shoots the shite out of my theory. Oh well
