When they had success in St. Louis, I was rooting for them and was called a band wagon fan by some. I've always liked them though.

I still can't believe that LA doesn't have a team yet.

I think it's just a southern california, LA thing. There's a large number of people of mexican descent here, so you'll see them wearing raider, dodger and laker paraphernalia. As for why people like a certain team, I'm sure many grow up liking a certain team or their friends like a team. For some it's a pride issue as they heavily associate themselves with a team.

I have a friend who's mexican and has season tickets to the Chargers. He for some reason despises the raiders and dodgers. I asked why he doesn't like them and he says they're "all mexican," in reference to the fans.

Thanks for clearing that up even though there seems to be a pattern regarding that.

no F&F. i knew a guy who put that west cost choppers (still not sure if thats correct) cross on his car. and jokingly i asked "hey what does that sticker stand for?" and he replied "i dont know, but everyone else puts them on, so i did too"

the car stickers represent what stuff is in the car.

the ones i hate the most are chevy silverados with arnette stickers. and guess who walks out.... a "cali kid". spiked hair, WHITE sunglasses, usually wearing ALL black, black shirts, black pants and black shoes. thinkin hes the coolest kid the the world.

just ranting, its not like anything on the internet is real... geeez.

..... pretty much anything except for car tuning companies.
Pretty lame man.

I'm sure there are plenty of people who hate on the Z, along with the typical Z owner and tuning companies. Is it justified though?

In my opinion the tuning stickers are wack also, unless you're sponsored. Why advertise for someone for free?

I had no problem with Roxy stickers when I was 17. Now a'days you have to be careful.

The negative connotation is 3-5 years in the bing.
