Let's just get this straight: Fandom

[Swiftstylez]

Some of you need to remember that you are only fans, not players.

Whilst it is excellent that I along with a majority of you support the Eels through thick and thin, some people need to be reminded that your experience as a fan is to be part of the players adulation with your support.

Ultimately, It is how you feel about the teams success, not the person next to you.

Now I'm not just saying that it is limited to Parramatta Eels supporters but I can acknowledge and notice that there are a majority of fans that you either assume or know of as 'bandwagon supporters', those that only turn up when we are winning.

No one has the right to feel that just because they go to/watch more games they are a fan and someone else is not, nor do I understand why other people don't just worry about their own backyard.

You see, if one were a bandwagon supporter and they hop on the "Hayne Train" only when it's coasting at full speed, the joy a fan would get from a Grand Final win would be rather minuscule compared to someone who has been hanging about since our last premiership and has been a season ticket holder ever since.

Being a fan of someone is the choice of a consumer and performing is on the onus of the players.

If a team is not performing and one chooses not to sit in cold and dreary weather at Parramatta Stadium and would prefer to go out with his mates and have fun than watch a football side get masterfully outclassed, that is his decision.

It is also still good that when we are performing that they (the "bandwagonners") turn up as that's what it is all about in terms of the Parramatta product; the more fans we get from playing well the better. Hence why coaches get sacked etc when we are not performing to appease the fans.

I don't know anyone who enjoys losing, whether they pay attention to it or not. Whilst there are going to be people like some of you, and as no doubt some Cronulla fans have experienced, that will stick it out at the worst of times, not everyone finds enjoyment from that.

I'm not saying that people shouldn't jokingly point out the bandwagonners but at the end of the day it isn't even that bad. Seriously. The joy they will feel will be different to your own when there is success because you have experienced the lowest of times.

Some people need to start worrying about themselves and less about others.

At the end of the day you are just on the sidelines and taking in the pride and atmosphere of success.

You aren't the success and thus I would encouarge some of you that in this time of positivity, you worry about yourself.

I agree. I've lived away from Sydney since I was 10. Saw my first live Eels game last year against the Warriors (in Aug I think), and I have to admit, my strategic knowledge of the game could be better. But I love the Eels and I've been a die hard fan flying the flag in Darwin and badelaide for over 20 years. It's a lonely life prefering NRL to AFL in SA, that's why I come on here.

[eels bloke]

Seeing my first game of footy ever as a child being the '86 GF I would consider myself a bandwagoner since that day. Having older brothers as Eels supporters I merely went on their advice and became an Eels supporter.

It is comical that some seem go about trying and outdo one and other in the I'm a better supporter than you department. Last year whenever footy chat arose I was questioned by blokes in the pub, mates of mates etc "how long you been supporting Parra?" with a raised eyebrow due to the apparent growth in fans with the fairytale run into the Finals Series.

Of course there will always be ladder climbers and the pretentious who think they're a better fan than the chap sitting next to them. It's a great laugh watching them, nevertheless.

MURDER IN PROGRESS -- EELS FANS IN DANGER
And if it's to be stopped it must be stopped now.

It's definite. The hired brains and administrators of the super rich elites are trying (and succeeding) in delivering upon large percentage reduction of the Eels world population by 2012-2015 -- as has been reported by Rockefeller, Council of Foreign Relations and Trilateral Commission watchers for many years. Variables to effect this catastrophic loss are being manipulated by corporations around the world. The Gulf disaster is the result of one such manipulation.

It has been pointed out -- that the oil and other poisons issuing from the Gulf of Mexico into the north Atlantic will kill many Eels supporters eating tuna from the gulf -- and the Corexit and benzine in rain are killing crops as far north as Iceland, as far west as the Sahara, as far east as Rotorua and as far south as Camp Mason in Antarctica -- and the government is not inspecting Gulf fish for Corexit!

Here in Yakima, sort of a breadbasket for the state of Washington -- we have had snow in May, rains that washed away all pollen, and giant hail stones -- devastating various crops here, food that becomes the burgers, pies, french fries, tomato sauce, dim sims and other fast-foods love so dearly by Eels fans. We also know that bees populations around the country have succumbed to something stormy in the air -- affecting yields in a big way.

Also see 1974 letter by Henry Kissinger (following his picture, below) written during the Gerald Ford presidency.

Owned by the Rothschild (BP) and Exxon (Rockefeller) groups the company is part of the world governance policy to have every Eels Fan buying each of the elements upon which his life depends from globalist corporations. Then it will be easy to control the Eels fan base, simply by shutting off their water or poisoning their water and air with Corexit 9500 if they breathe a populist word or resist a globalist proposal.)

Specifically grown for the Eels consumer, they are going after the Food Supply grown in Australia now -- done in by poison:

Australian vegetables poisoned as police probe sabotage - Police in Australia are investigating the poisoning of seven million vegetable seedlings, including tomatoes, aubergines and melons, all essential ingredients for the variety of pizzas eaten by Eels fans

http://www.murdertheeelsfanbase.crimesyndicate.f**kthem/news/666999666999666

"I don't think it's just a local vandal," Ms Planehayne said, according to the Associated Press. "Obviously they knew what they were doing, as it was a pretty technical act they've done." "It's obvious, any dumbo can see the writing on the wall, they did the Eels over in the 2009 NRL Grand-Final and now they are going after the Eels whole global fan base.."

=================

Let me insert here that the population science -- neo-Malthus -- on the Eels over-population is false. We do not have too high population on this planet, but rather too many multi-billionaires who, when they have thrown the Eels fans off their land and dispossessed them and monopolized the means of production and penned them in urban ghettos like Parramatta Stadium, then proceed to address this condition by arguing that the Eels fan-base population of the world must be cut by a half.

The fact is that the Eels human being is the greatest natural resource of the planet -- if they are allowed to develop and flower under proper conditions (such as blue&gold social funny-money credit and winning the next 30 premierships in a row).

The rich see Eels-humanity only as vermin -- and it is a self-fulfilling vision. When all of the land and resources and money are in the hands of a few and the Eels fan base is pushed aside, forced to beg hat in hand -- then the rich lose all respect for the Eels fan base and develop values and mores that treat the Eels Fan base as inferior, as dirt. Where the rich are Storm and Broncos, NRLism helps reinforce this denigration and dehumanization of the dispossessed Eels debt slave.

You definately need to get out more. Get out from in front of the computer and go search for girlfriend/boyfriend and life.

Thanks for the people that actually replied sincerely. Those are some of the cases that I'm talking about.

I even thank Casper for his usual unusual input.

You definately need to get out more. Get out from in front of the computer and go search for girlfriend/boyfriend and life.

Case #2,

This is what I'm talking about. Stupid moronic assumptions by others.

What's ironic is that my girlfriend had her arms around me reading what I was as I browsed. I live out of home, go to university, work casually and have a life of my own if you must know.

I'm doing the exact same thing you are,
