Mumbai just lost the IPL season 3 finals. I am disappointed. I rooted for them all throughout the 3 years. So i do feel bad for them. Anyone who follows IPL knows that the 1 team that was consistent throughout the tournament was MUMBAI.
So what does a fan do now? when the team has just failed to clear the last hurdle? do we leave it? start following the team that wins all the time??!! now that is what a true fan will never do.
Lets look at England... Fans there root for their football club since their birth. cuz thats where they belong. your local club is YOUR club. You cheer the players, cuz they're from one of your neighboring families. they are your kids. and you feel protective about them... like a mother does... that is what i feel a true fan is...
Like a mother to the team...giving strength in time of weakness...cheering on when the storm is against them...raving about them to others like they're the best in the world...fighting with others if they say something against their baby...NEVER leaving them when they are down and out...celebrating their victories with them... and mourning their losses with them...a true fan always sticks to his team...no matter how the situation changes...his heart beats for them...
Hope everyone out there finds their teams too... I love you Mumbai... I love you Mumbai Indians... I love you Arsenal... I love you Rog Fed...I'll be there for you, ALWAYS.. Thats the promise of a true fan :)
