What Kind of Fan are You in Times of Laker Crisis?

If you’ve seen the movie “Anger Management” with Adam Sandler and Jack Nicholson, you surely remember the insane Philadelphia Sixers fan who loses his mind at any sign of struggle or shortcoming for his favorite team. This is the type of fan who shouts profanities at every call, non-call and coaching decision. Even if things are going right, this profanity-laced, red-in-the-face person watches every game with an intensity that parallels only that of Kevin Garnett in a decisive game seven.

This person has likely broken quite a few televisions, remotes and chairs in his lifetime; and is probably not allowed in multiple sports bars throughout the nation. They live, breath and eat Lakers, but the take it so far to the extreme,
that it becomes so painful to watch a game with them, that you’d rather stay at home and watch Sex in the City with your girlfriend, than spend three hours with this person.
