Shut Up

No, you haven't watched the Capitals for "20 years." No, you didn't hide your team loyalty through the regular season because you've had "your heart broken too many times in the past." No, you aren't a fan.

Shut up. Fair weather fans, bandwagoners -- shut up. You're ruining sports. Buying a throwback jersey last week doesn't make you a devout, life-long follower of the Capitals, the Steelers, the Cavaliers, or the [insert recently successful team here].

Your actions are transparent, your words are predictable, and no, your coworkers around the water cooler aren't buying it.

Shut your mouth.
