Interesting about the Lions. They may have a rabid local following, but the Cubs/Red Sox following is characterized by logic-defying loyalty nation-wide. I've yet to see any such thing for the Lions.



These teams have exactly the bandwagon fans you have such disdain for. I have 3 long time co-workers who were suddenly cubs and red sox fans, but there was never a mention of either team in many prior conversations about baseball. I don't think the Lions futility has quite the extensive history that the Cubs have had, so maybe with time, they can also gain national sympathy.
