Question

[TheRealDeal]

Say you have grown up with someone your whole life. Been on sports team's together since you were very young and played HS sports together. Your fried is clearly a better athlete than you and goes to a bigger school to play football while you go to a smaller one. Your friend has an amazing career and enters the NFL draft. You've since given up football and are now just a fan. Your friend surprisingly doesn't get drafted but instantly signs with your favorite teams division rival.

How do you feel?

Your friend goes through camp and you watch all of your team's rival's games and hope he does well and he does. At the end of camp he gets cut. Doesn't make it to PS either.

Are you relieved you don't have to watch your friend on a hated team or are you pissed because he might not get another chance in the league?

pissed. friendship goes over loyalty to teams.

except for steelers fans.

ya...if you were truly a friend, wouldn't you want the very best for him, regardless of your own situation?

I'm just trying to see how you guys would respond...I was 100% pissed because they told him "There was nothing better you could have done, we just didn't have room" which made me fly off the handle because if you knew you weren't going to keep him, why lie to him when he could have had a chance elsewhere.

I agree. If you are really friends with the person that you definitely want them to succeed no matter where they play.

Can you imagine if you were in his shoes and your friend was relieved that you might not get a shot to play in the NFL just because of the team?

So, your friend is retarded?

You can hope a player does well, but wish harm on the team. Bros before hos (and hated teams).
