7 Bandwagon NBA Fans Who’s Existence Makes Real Fans Cringe
Chances are you’re one of them.
1. Knicks Fans (or lack thereof)
When Carmelo signed with the Knicks, fans everywhere stocked up on Melo jerseys like they were going out of style. West coasters hopped on the NY bandwagon almost as quickly as they had with MIA. This season you’d be hard pressed to find a true fan. Although they nearly qualified for the playoffs with talent including Amar’e and J.R., their fans seem to have evaporated into thin air.
2. Brooklyn Nets Fans
Via giphy.com
Jason Kidd is coach and minority owner – that’s pretty legit. But that’s not what we’re here for. The Nets are on this list for two main reasons. 1) If you’re wondering where all those Knicks fans went, you’ve found them. The Nets had the misfortune of inheriting many of the Knicks fair-weather fans. 2) The key word is Brooklyn. Their fans were few and far between as the New Jersey Nets because, let’s face it, it’s New Jersey. Their inability to make the playoffs for 5 years prior may have also had something to do with it. But I prefer to blame it on Jersey.
3. Laker fans who know nothing about basketball
Via giphy.com
Let me put this out there: I am a Laker fan – a diehard, eat, sleep, and breathe all things Laker, Laker fan. But the Lakers have a huge group of bandwagon fans, essentially groupies, who are basically everything that’s wrong with basketball. They dress up for games like they’d dress for the Met Ball, they overuse buzzwords such as Black Mamba and Lakeshow, and they still think Khloe Kardashian’s ex plays for the Lakers.
4. Nearly every Oklahoma City Thunder Fan ever
Via giphy.com
I have an innate issue with anyone who becomes a fan only once a team has begun winning. But let’s face it, that’s most fans. If you’ve followed a team since you were little, or because it’s your home team, or since they sucked – that’s a real fan. I love watching Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant as individual players, but I am by no means an OKC fan. If you can’t tell me the original team name pre 2008, please refrain from talking. If you don’t know, which I’m guessing applies to the vast majority, they were the Seattle SuperSonics.
Don’t act like you knew that.
Seriously, don’t.
5. Clipper Fans: “I’ve always been a Clipper fan”
Via giphy.com
First, no you haven’t. The Lakers diminishing team and record combined with Stern committing the greatest cock block in the history of sports let to a surplus of fans shifting alliances to the shiny new, Clipper team. Pre 2011 Clippers fans didn’t exist. And why would they? The Clippers were merely the “other LA team”. They have an all time losing record of roughly .382 and have only even qualified for the playoffs 9 times in 43 years. That’s the second worst record in the NBA, barely placing them above the Charlotte Bobcats.
If you’re going to jump on the bandwagon, at least own it.
6. Heat fans: All of them
Ok we get it, you have LBJ, D Wade, and the Predator aka Chris Bosh. It’s hard to deny the star power of that triple threat. But for a team whose fan base is annoyingly vocal during the playoffs, it’s shocking they struggle to fill the stadium during the regular season. It’s a team with predominately bandwagon fans who are only in it for the ring and can’t be bothered to sit through 6 months of regular season games. The worst is when they lose, every fan seems to resort to, “I’m really just a Lebron fan, and he still played well.” Shoot Me.
(side note, google “Chris Bosh looks like” trust me, it’s great)
7. Speaking of Lebron…
mentaledgeathletics.com / Via mediagallery.usatoday.com
IMO there is nothing worse than a Lebron fan. They’re aggressive yet under informed, they get heated (forgive the pun) over game-stopping leg cramps, and worst of all they continue to do so after Lebron has repeatedly proven himself both intellectually challenged and, for lack of a better descriptor, a giant cry-baby. But this isn’t about the man himself, it’s about his fans. To them, LBJ can do no wrong, and they will inform you of such in a 30 minute speech at a decibel level loud enough to make your ears bleed. The worst are those obsessing over LBJ for the first time. It’s 2014, that bandwagon left 4 years ago dude, ya missed it.

The Portrayal Of Overweight People In Advertising
1. Vespa, New Zealand
Campaign for the GTS 300 Super, “the most powerful Vespa ever.”
Astounding ads, really.
3. Marilia Light Dairy Products, Brazil.
Copy Translation: Goodbye Fat.
Uh, I don’t think gun range target imagery is really the way to go.
4. Coopers Light Lager, Singapore.
Ad from a campaign that won a Bronze Lion at Cannes in 2008.
See guys, because it’s light beer, you’ll only have partial beer goggles.
5. Sportsplausch Wider Bikes, Switzerland.
Mountain biking over the fat of the land.
Nothing like shoving the slothiness of the sedentary right in their faces, Jesus.
6. Gold’s Gym, Costa Rica.
Loose headline translation: “What you leave out of Facebook, put it into Gold’s Gym.”
7. VIP Medicum, an Estonian beauty clinic.
To hawk their suspect procedures, VIP paraded around zaftig and skinny look-a-likes in identical clothing to show “overweight” women the Utopian possibilities-a live, walking, smiling version of the type of Before/After ad you’ve seen forever in the back of women’s magazines.
8. Obesity League of Belgium.
“1.5 million Belgians are obese or suffer from overweight” reads the clunky copy here, which has been translated for publicity purposes.
Not exactly an inspirational to the corpulent.
The visual, however, does quickly and simply communicate “fat dead person.”
9. Gold’s Gym, Costa Rica.
Ad from a Cannes award-winning campaign.
Copy: “It’s About Time.”
10. Del Mar Medical Spa, Bucharest, Romania.
Time to evolve, whale woman.
Very, very, very bad.
11. National Obesity Forum, UK.
“The eating habits you give your children can last a lifetime.”
15. Pilates With Gerda, in Istanbul, Turkey.
Fat baggage.
Another ad from an award-winning (Gold at Europe’s Epica Awards) campaign.
Nice Photoshop work, but such an obnoxious negative-sell isn’t effective, IMHO.
16. Northern Bariatric Surgery Institute, Peckville, PA.
Horrible ad for “weight cutting.”
17. Interbest Outdoor, The Netherlands.
“The sooner you advertise here, the better.”
This stripping fat man billboard won a Gold CLIO.
18. Fit Light Yogurt, Brazil.
And here’s the big loser campaign of the bunch.
Copy Translation: “Forget about it. Men’s preference will never change.”

21 Bachelor Pad Tricks That Will Up Your Game
1. First, identify the main function of your apartment. View this image ” Homepolish / Via homepolish.com Do you want to entertain more? View this image ” Homepolish / Via homepolish.com Or do you just want a place to unwind after work? 2. Avoid cliché color patterns.
21 Bachelor Pad Tricks That Will Up Your Game
1. First, identify the main function of your apartment.
Homepolish / Via homepolish.com
Do you want to entertain more?
2. Avoid cliché color patterns.
Roomorama / Via roomorama.com
Unless you’re a vampire, don’t do this.
One of the most common and overused color combinations we’ve seen in a guy’s apartment? Red, black, and white. Or black, white, and blue.
Break up monotonous colors with neutrals.
Homepolish / Via homepolish.com
Avoid using all primary colors in your home; it can look very dated and unsophisticated. Break up monotonous colors with neutrals like taupe and gray, and add in metallics like brass or chrome.
3. Fluorescent light is not sexy.
Sweet Chaos Home / Via sweetchaoshome.com
When it comes to your home, one of the biggest mistakes you can make is to rely solely on the overhead lighting you’ve inherited. Few things kill the mood faster than the harsh, unforgiving glare of fluorescent ceiling lights.
Invest in task lamps.
Homepolish / Via homepolish.com
Add in additional sources of light, like table lamps, floor lamps, and desk lamps, which will create warm, flattering light. You can also install a dimmer switch to reduce the overhead glare. Ahhh. So much better.
4. Upgrade Your Hamper.
Kidspot Parent Exchange / Via parenting.kidspot.com.au
If you’re still hanging onto that $5 plastic bin from your dorm-room days, it’s time for an upgrade. Get a hamper (with a lid) to keep dirty socks and gym clothes something modern and stylish.
5. Change those sheets!
The Loop / Via theloop.ca
Recent studies have shown that single men change their sheets four times a year. Don’t be that guy.
Homepolish / Via homepolish.com
Buy multiple sheet sets and change your bedding regularly. Go ahead and mix it up, The W Hotel, Coyuchi, and School House Electric all have great options.
6. Banish the TV from the bedroom.
Shutterstock
We know you love to watch the game, but TV has a time and a place, and it’s not the bedroom.
7. Don’t buy white towels.
Manhattan Nest / Via manhattan-nest.com
They get dirty and gross very quickly.
Buy towels in darker colors, like navy or charcoal.
Coyuchi / Via coyuchi.com
Instead of white, choose darker colors like navy, charcoal, or taupe. Not only will they stay looking fresh for longer, but they are much better at hiding stains and discoloration.
8. Ditch the Solo Cups.
Unless you’re still in college or throwing a rager, you shouldn’t be serving drinks in solo cups.
Invest in wine glasses.
Homepolish / Via homepolish.com
You don’t have to spend a fortune on glassware. Most big retailers like Bed, Bath, and Beyond sell inexpensive sets of wine glasses. Mason jars are also a great-looking option and are inexpensive and sturdy (perfect for entertaining). You can pick up a dozen at your local cooking store or Fish’s Eddy.
9. You can never have too many books.
Homepolish / Via homepolish.com
Reading is sexy, plain and simple. You can never have too many books, with one caveat: Having ALL finance books is not the way to Make Friends and Influence People.
If you really want to impress, create a color-coordinated bookcase. Most people don’t realize that you can easily recreate this look at home by ordering specific books by color or material.
10. Paint your bedroom a deep, sexy color.
Homepolish / Via homepolish.com
If you want to go the extra mile, paint your bedroom a dark, moody hue like Benjamin Moore’s Soot or “Iron Mountain.” Get it in satin finish.
11. Banish those ugly CD and DVD racks.
Ugly House Photos / Via uglyhousephotos.com
If you still have CDs or DVDs, store them in a drawer or away from view to keep your place from looking cluttered (or forever lost in the ’90s).
12. Buy an area rug.
Homepolish / Via homepolish.com
One of the biggest mistakes guys make is not getting an area rug for the living room. It’s a simple tweak that will make a big impact. (Besides, girls don’t like having cold feet.)
13. It looks weird when all of your furniture comes from the same place.
Outblush / Via outblush.com
You wouldn’t (or shouldn’t) buy your entire wardrobe from the same store, why would you buy all of your furniture from the same place?
If you’re short on time, shop on websites that aggregate lots of furniture and decor brands, like Wayfair, One Kings Lane, or Gilt Home.
15. Put it in a frame.
Homepolish / Via homepolish.com
If you can’t part with your beloved Godfather poster, put it in a frame. It will look a million times classier.
16. Cover your windows.
Homepolish / Via homepolish.com
This is key. If your windows don’t have blinds or curtains, get some. Especially in the bedroom. Don’t be that guy that covers his windows with sheets or towels.
17. Get a candle.
Diptyque / Via diptyqueparis.com
The human sense of smell is one of the most powerful senses linked to memory and sex drive, so it’s a major mood killer if your bedroom smells like dirty socks. Do yourself a favor and buy candles for the bedroom and bathroom. You don’t need to settle for a frilly scent either, guy-friendly brands like Diptyque, Meyers, and Kaufmann Mercantile sell a variety of more herbal, musky options.
18. Get a killer sound system.
Cult of Mac / Via cultofmac.com
To close any date night, you need the right music to set the mood, but that music is useless without a quality sound system.
19. Buy hand soap.
Homepolish / Via homepolish.com
This may seem like a no-brainer, but hand soap in the bathroom is an absolute must.
21. Lasty, throw out the empty liquor bottles.
Etsy / Via etsy.com
Being an alcoholic is no longer cool if you’re over the age of 25. Time to chuck these in the recycling bin.
