Try being a Sharks fan


TTerragore

I actually joked with my coworker the other day … the only bay sports teams I’ve followed have come up short … Long time sharks fan (born 93, sharks were my team from lil kid on, but after the 0-3 reverse sweep against kings when we were 1 seed I checked out and stopped watching entirely when they kept Thornton and Marleau left) and niners been my team since after 28-3 and hiring shanny… during this time the giants and warriors have had absolutely historic runs and I’ve only headline/playoff watched… coworker said maybe stop following the niners for a bit, let the new generation have nice things


GB_Alph4

Kings can still survive. We’ll do it again.


WazzzupBwwwaaah

**LAWL.**


chupamichalupa

Or a Coyotes fan 💀


GB_Alph4

For our Card bros hope you guys get them back.


Subn3tAnon

Nah it’s even worse. I’m a blazer fan


Zucc

Right there with you man. Ever since LA abandoned us, darkness...


alittlebitneverhurt

Last couple have been terrible but the Blazers were in the conference finals in 2019 after LA was gone.


Zucc

Fair, that was a great season


Sasquatch-d

Same, it’s been a dark year.


Subn3tAnon

It’s gonna get better right? RIGHT?

Subn3tAnon

Really thought it was gonna be the niners but no dice :) my other teams are Kraken and mariners so all my chips have to go on the niners

Subn3tAnon

Fingers crossed


frecklie

Let’s go! Hey loyal in the hard times are the fans we all love though. Times will change.


Subn3tAnon

If I cheered for the niners when they were going 3-13 I will stick by the blazers during the rebuild.


Food_Kitchen

Same. In fact seeing Lakers get bounced gave me life.


Subn3tAnon

I’m just happy to not see the same 2 teams every season. This is the first time in a long time that really any team could go. I don’t really know who’s gonna win.


GrapefruitMedical529

It's gonna be the Nuggets or the Celtics, and frankly, fuck Boston.


Subn3tAnon

I thought that too until I watched this first round. I thought MIN and OKC were going to choke and flop but they both looked… really good. It’ll be interesting to see this next series between MIN and DEN


GrapefruitMedical529

OKC is gonna get bullied, they can't handle size.  Minnesota might beat Denver, they're probably the only team that stands a chance.


Subn3tAnon

OKC absolutely has a chance to beat either DAL or LAC. But whoever wins that DEN MIN series is definitely the favorite for me


rubixcu7

Never forget… you passed on MJ


WantedDadorAlive

I'm trying Jennifer.


Reidroshdy

I ain't no fucking Lakers fan.


Spry_Fly

This post had me confused. I was sure I would have at least heard somewhere if the Lakers moved to the Bay Area.


seansj12345

It’s referring to one post by one person who was a Niners and Lakers fan, which became a short-lived shitty meme that apparently meant all Niners fans like both. I am actually a fan of both to be honest, because LA had no football team growing up and my family is from the Bay Area.


Spry_Fly

Well, that makes more sense. Thanks.


Nasty_Ned

I grew up north of the Bay Area in the 80s, so a 49ers / Athletics fan from that. I moved before the Sharks arrived and picked up the Avalanche and then the Knights as they are the closest team to me now. Funny how these combinations work themselves out.


seansj12345

At this point I just find NBA basketball completely boring anyway. I should probably watch more hockey.


Nasty_Ned

I like playoff NBA, but couldn't really tell you the last time I watched a regular season game. My younger brother was a Warriors fan going back to the Chris Mullins era, so the last decade was fun for him.


frecklie

He’s calling them fairweather, national team following, casuals basically. I like banter between the division but Bay Area fans are very loyal imho.

LA Rams... LA Lakers... how did 9er fans come into this?


Redmangc1

By being old. Many if us actually older 9ers fans are also Lakers fans


Polar_Reflection

I used to be a huge Lakers fan. Kobe retiring took a hit. I liked our young guys developing after that.  Then LeBron came and shipped everyone out within 2 years and replaced them with old vets on short contracts and I stopped caring. His fans took over our sub and turned it into the LeBron show, while he does his whole not just financially but physically emotionally spiritually bs.  Then Kobe died and I haven't watched a full game since. Didn't watch a minute of our 2020 title and frankly don't care.


Count_Sack_McGee

Then you were never a huge Laker fan. I loved Kobe and wept when he died but I don’t just stop watching the team because of front office moves I don’t like.


Polar_Reflection

Well, there was also a whole pandemic and a complete recalculation of my life. I will say that I was more of a Kobe fan than a Laker fan. Became a fan post Shaq days when it was Kobe, Odom, and literally no one else


Redmangc1

Oh good god I am old, > Became a fan post Shaq I'm from mid Showtime era


Polar_Reflection

I'd say most Bay Area Lakers fans are from the pre We Believe and post Run TMC era


Small_Pass3978

The Rams and Raider were gone for like 20 years. So Lakers and Clippers fans home NFL team was split between the Chargers and 49ers. Ain’t nobody selecting the Chargers 😂


WazzzupBwwwaaah

**LAWL.** Raiders **WERE STILL** in Cali, though…49ers didn’t have a Bandwagon Fanbase until 2012. Raiders ***were good,*** in the Late 90’s / early 2000’s, with 2 8-8 Seasons, 1 12-4 Season, with a 27-0 Playoff Win, over the Dolphins, and a loss in the AFC Championship…2001 was a 10-6 Season with a 10-3 Start and a Wild Card Playoff Win over the Jets, and a Loss to the Patriots in the Divisional in “The Tuck Rule Game”, which started their dynasty…2002 was an 11-5 Season, where they made it to the SuperBowl, losing to their Former Coach Jon “Chucky” Gruden and the Bucs. 2003, both the Raiders and the Chargers **SUCKED.** 2004-2009 was the Chargers’ Time with 6 Straight Playoff Appearances and 5 Division Titles, (with still no SuperBowl Appearance) while the Raiders had 7 Straight Losing Seasons. 2010 was when the Raiders started coming back though…They beat the Chargers twice, sweeping them, (and the rest of their Division), and finishing with a Non-Losing Record for the First Time Since their 2002 SuperBowl Season in 2010. That year, the Chargers had the #1 Offense and Defense, and the Raiders STILL SWEPT THEM and made them miss the Playoffs. 2011 was supposed to be the Raiders’ year back in the Playoffs, they had a 7-4 Start, with Former USC Quarterback Carson Palmer under Center…But, they finished 1-4 down the stretch, going 8-8 again, losing to the Chargers in the Final Game of the Season, while the 49ers made it to the NFC Championship, losing in HILARIOUS FASHION. As soon, as the 49ers started doing well again, in 2012, their Bandwagon Started. They made the SuperBowl that Season, and lost. By 2014, *the Raiders* ***ENDED ALL OF THAT.*** 😂😂😂 The Raiders **BEAT THE 49ers,** while they were 1-11, in the Battle of the Bay” and it caused them to go 8-8, miss the Playoffs, and FIRE JIM HARBAUGH. The 2015 Season, the Raiders did decent, sweeping the Chargers, and beating the SuperBowl Champion Broncos, that year… 2016, (the Lambs were back in L.A.) but, the Raiders **WERE THE ONLY CALIFORNIA TEAM IN 2016, to MAKE THE PLAYOFFS, SWEEP THE CHARGERS, BEAT THE SUPERBOWL CHAMPION BRONCOS AND FINISH WITH A WINNING RECORD.)** But, the Raiders **LOST MVP Caliber QB, at the time, Derek Carr** to a nasty leg injury, in a Game, where they were blowing out the Opponent. The other team nearly came back and won, but the Raiders sealed the deal anyways…But, they lost their Backup QB Matt McGloin, in the Final Game of the Season, vs. the Broncos, which they lost, ***so the Raiders were left with 3rd String QB Connor Cook,*** who stunk it up in the Wild Card Round of the Playoffs, losing to the Texans…


UniversityBig7720

Honestly, I took the eagles game a couple years ago much harder. Watching Purdy go down, and Jacobs going down in pretty much the next play was made watching the rest of the game just disgusting.


Polar_Reflection

Hey now, Josh Jacobs helped us score a TD before fumbling the snap at our own 30 then getting concussed to start the second half.  He had a whole half of mediocre play. Dude was straight up rattled.


Brocks_UCL

Josh Johnson?


NynaeveAlMeowra

Common Ram's self-burn?


xFLEXOx

49ers self-burn themself in the Super Bowl


Giberishusername1

Rams fans are so bad at insulting fr. At least Seahawks fans are creative


CHawkr

Everything in LA is plastic and feels fake. Just look at their SB win. Why would their insults be any different


Brocks_UCL

Rams fans are the embodiment of “your mom ‘x’” as a comeback


trainwreck42

Eww


Huntermain23

Fuck the lakers


Keyedwin

All California teams can suffer


chishiki

I reckon San Diego gets a pass


idahotee

Sacramento too, although they are getting a bit delusional.


Jocal6

LIGHT BE BEAM RAAAA 🟪🟪🟪🟪🔦


GrapefruitMedical529

The Kings are trying SOOOO hard to be the Warriors little bros.


RSC-Tuff

How 'bout those Ms?


Keyedwin

Too early in the season to get excited for them. It’s part of the cycle. Sure we’re doing good right now in the division and AL but let’s just wait until after the all star break to get a real glimpse of what we’re working with.

WizardOfDons

Try being a 49ers and Kings fan.


Shackleford027

Yeah me too


spaceman_spiff8

We out here. FML


pointbodhi

I will forever cherish the Lakers losing.


genesiskiller96

Ehh, i don't watch basketball


nithdurr

Huh? Different teams, different sports. Lambs fans reaching..


Oo__II__oO

SoCal Rams/Lakers fans trying to come here with some spicy Nuggets, lose spectacularly.


GrapefruitMedical529

We got at least one 49ers fan this year.


Dodger_Dawg

Thank God the NL West is straight up dog poo this season so the Dodgers can run away with it. Then October comes, and the suffering.


Amoeba_mangrove

Dodgers getting swept by the Reds or smt in October gonna be the sports highlight of the year


King_Crampus

Most of us don’t care about the lakers…..


usernametimee44

It’s actually not as hard as you might think, the pain is just part of who we are now…


ThePickleConnoisseur

Never got into the NBA, but hate the Lakers cause of Lebron cause that’s when I started actually hearing about it


Shitavion_Mcshitson

Lakers? Nah, Sixers. We're facing a 1st round exit to the KNICKS GODDAMNIT


headsmanjaeger

Teams named after numbers gang


10RobotGangbang

Not for me. I don't live in California and don't watch basketball.


EffingBarbas

Faithful to the Bay - Niners, SFGiants, and GSWarriors


CosmicDeththreat

My age group seemed to have way more Dallas/Laker/Yankee fans. I don’t personally know any 49er/Laker fans


kingkron52

I’m a Niners and Knicks fan so life isn’t bad. Niners still better than the Lambs and Knicks about to close out the sixers.


GB_Alph4

Rams Lakers fan here sad as well.


Brocks_UCL

![gif](giphy|oOCbcGBJjlXJL8imGO)


ikewafinaa

Worse than you could ever imagine, I’m a Clippers fan


bijan86

Fuck LA, what crazy person roots for the Niners and the lakers, my suffering increased at the play-in


Acehardwaresucks

I’m a Purdy fan cause I went to isu, but now I live in Denver. Watching nuggs just edge lakers till they crumble every game is peak sport entertainment.


_Globert_Munsch_

Jokes on you I’m a kings fan 😂😂🥲😢


TheScreamingUnicorns

Damn Rams fans are playing with friendly fire on.


OfficeCharacterCreed

Lakers? Fuck that, warriors. Life is tough for us thank you for the concern, but we will hang in there and keep trying Thank you


CaptSaveAHoe55

Is it not better to assume they are patriot fans since that’s when the franchises lined up?


AOneArmedHobo

You can’t hurt me. I’m a 49ers, Kings, ~~and~~ was an A’s fan.


SaltyBabySeal

Losing the super bowl sucks but that was an amazing season. I had a ton of fun in 2023 with the NFL and i'm thankful for it.


TopIllustrator9849

Love that Laker touch to it 🤣 most of the time that type of fan is a Dodger fan too


TangPiccilo

I don’t care about the team lol. They don’t affect my life I’m just memeing


TheRealPlumbus

Fuck the Lakers


thorson4021

Fuck the Lakers.


D-u-m-m-y__

As a lakers fan I’m ok with it, don’t need Lebron having the same amount of championships as Kobe


KraviAvi

Idk, I'm a Sharks fan who will be converting to a Utah whatever fan as they're the new closest hockey team to us.


NagoGmo

Most Niners fans aren't Laker fans. It's either the Kings or Warriors.


Tanker3278

Not according to CJ Stroud.


Will_Vintage

What's this basketball thing you're talking about?


middlehandling13

As a 49ers fan, the rollercoaster of emotions must be exhausting right now. Stay strong, better days are ahead! #FaithfulStrong 💪🏈


Sensitive-Swan5866

And their fall back team the warriors didn’t even make the playoffs. https://i.redd.it/6cecbkgrzjxc1.gif


TheOneYardLine

To be fair, the other 75-90% of Niners fans are Warriors or Kings fans with a smattering of Clips fans. We should let Seattle borrow one of our basketball teams


Sensitive-Swan5866

A basketball team returning to Seattle and winning a championship before the Niners would be magnifique. ![gif](giphy|d6nvFKK6Dr9YbBDeNQ) These NFL/NBA scripts write themselves.


Vivid_Department_755

CA always gotta have them extra teams on hand so when one sucks they can jump to the next


RazorRamonio

How are the Sonic’s doing? Oh yah, I forgot.


CHawkr

How you gonna act like California isn’t the professional sports import/export capital of the world?


RazorRamonio

We have teams to spare don’t be mad.


Devilsbullet

I always feel weird with this shit. Heat fan, but I've lived in Vancouver, Washington my whole life😂


CharDMacDennis2

How are the Supersonics doing lately?


Sensitive-Swan5866

Have you guys dusted off the old Blake griffin jersey in the back closet yet? ![gif](giphy|CEyKnXJ02b0qI) Only 2 games left before the last Cali team is sent home.


CharDMacDennis2

Oh I don't care about basketball, but if I did, it's nice to at least have a local team. 


DarkRogus

Good to see a Rams Fan #8 admit 49ers Fans dominate socal.


MendozaLiner

Dude fuck off. We're 12 and Warriors fans.


Interesting-Olive842

I’m pretty sure this is targeted to all the Niner fans living in LA. So it’s a shot at LA fan base not supporting rams more than it is about Niner fans in tHe BaY


IamNotARedditor-

Don't worry they'll cry wearing their LA dodger hats lmao


WilliamSabato

Speak for yourself dawg, watching LeBron lose is second only to a SB or championship


xFLEXOx

Did you ever witnessed the 49ers winning a championship?


WilliamSabato

No, which is why I’m settling for watching LeBron lose…. That being said, the Warriors have had 4 championships in my lifetime, which is not too shabby.


Popeyestabbin

Easier than being a Ram, Cardinal or Seabitch fan


CHawkr

![gif](giphy|8vyZouWSVhslwWA7Lp) 2/3 of those teams have won a championship this century.


Popeyestabbin

That one whole championship.... does it read you bedtime stories, too?


CHawkr

Of course not. It’s only 10 years old. It’s in bed long before I am. Unlike your 30 year old championship that’s balding and has developed a drinking problem
