Is it OK to call your favorite sports team "we"?

supercutebutt
I have a friend who is a Cincinnati Bengals nut because when he was a child, he liked the way their uniforms looked. Now he is an adult who calls the Bengals "we" and is so excided that he says he has to "pinch himself" because the Bengals are going to the Super Bowl. He texted me, "We haven't been this good in years!" This dude ISN'T from Cincinnati. He is from Detroit. He never lived in Ohio ever in his life. Is this acceptable to you? VOTE!


It is perfectly fine.
No. This whole "I like the uniforms, so I will call the team 'we' now" is total BS.
Fans should never call a team "we". Even if a fan was born, raised and now resides in the area.
