It's football season! Yay! The fans are excited, the team competition posts are trending on social media, and the energy is present. We've seen everyone from kids, to teenagers, to men and women fully covered in their favorite teams attire even down to the dog dressed in a doggie jersey.
One of the things I often see a lot of as a woman is women who may not be taken as a seriously as most men when it comes to being a true sports fanatic who is loyal to a specific team. Frankly many people seem to believe some women don't even like sports and they are only faking it to try to get a man. Face it, men are pretty much as equally attracted to and wowed by a female football junkie as he is to a female bike rider. It's just something about a woman who can hang with the fellas in a male dominated sport such as football. Me personally, I'm from ATL GA. so for me, I'm a Falcons fan by nature but I'm not a regular and I admit it. You won't see me with earrings, and posters or car tags and Falcons mugs, but I love my team and will always be cheering them on.
I decided to write this article because I must say, I have seen a few women suspects who don't truly seem to be as big of a fan as they “post” to be and as a matter of fact, they despise the sport and all the egotistical chatter that comes with it.
So how do you spot a fake woman fan who's just posting "Go team" on their FB or social media timeline in hopes of getting a guy? How to spot a true football fan and know the difference between the fakes.
1. A true football fan will have tons of posts about their favorite team not only for the current football season, but if you scroll on her FB or social media pages and go to last year’s football season and the years before.... you will see the same team posts and all the hype about their favorite team as you're seeing today. A fake won't have any posts and you wouldn't even know they were a fan if you didn't see that one helmet they fraudulently posted on their time line talking about “Go Team!". What eva!) Fakes never talk about the sport, they don't know any of the plays nor players names, and have never attended one football game in their life nor have they shown an interest. Most true football fans run in packs or with their fathers or significant others. They plan tail gates and many times hold season passes. Fakes have never even been to a little league football game! Lol 😂
2. Look for the gear! True football fans have all the gear. From the earrings and hair accessories, to the sweat shirts, the socks, tee shirts, bracelets, pillows, and even the cup they drink out of. They are so known for being a fan, people often give gifts with their team’s logos on them and many times they get surprised with free tickets and this excites them. Fakes don't even know the teams colors and haven't even purchased nor worn a real team jersey. Going to Walmart and buying a lame tee that says your favorite team does NOT mean you're a real football fan. If you give a fake a set of football tickets as a gift, she'll more than likely look at you like you're crazy and kindly head to the nearest shopping cemetery to shop! True fans would love the tickets, fakes could care less.
3. Does she watch the game or attend the games with you with excitement and enthusiasm? Real football fans are the first to be right there watching or attending the games with you or friends. They make food and hold official football viewing parties at their homes and invite people over. They give high fives and talk smack like the guys, they are the truth! Fakes are no where near excited and they often sit in the back or in another room watching Real House Wives or other reality shows, secretly grumbling how much she gets tired of you watching football all the time. Then she'll occasionally come into the room where you and your peeps are watching the game and start trying to get your attention and getting mad cause you're into the game instead of her. Then she'll give all your friends the stanky eye and leave the room and text you saying you're not getting any tonight. Ugh!!!!!
(Such a Drama Queen!)
4. Real football fans know just as much or more about the sport than you do! Chances are they grew up with it! Warning...Don't ever try to quiz and true football fan about the game or ask her to run to the store to get snacks during the game... You just might get embarrassed!Fake fans are already uncomfortable and have to Google every time someone says or asks them something about the game so they don't mind running to the store to get snacks because they aren't really interested anyway. Anything to get out of there!
What it all boils down to is, if you're a football fan you better make sure your mate is just as hype or can put on just for your sake. If you're not able to spot the fakes beforehand, be prepared for that mate who's not really that into the sport to be difficult to deal with when it's football or basketball season. You may not have known she didn't really care for the sport because you may have been attracted to her for other reasons then of course she started faking to like sports and without question....you were hooked.
Now I'm not saying don't date girls who don't care for football because there are plenty of women who don't particularly love the sport, but they will make a sacrifice for their boos, but I'm warning you about the fakes who are only in it to win it and once they get the guy, you better get ready to turn that TV off, put the remote down, tell your company they got to go, and sit and cuddle with her because if not..... You're not going to get any that night or any night you choose the game over her buns hun!
Go Falcons!!! And that was real! LOL
