Smells like team spirit

This will be a quick one...
I went to the University of South Carolina...the gamecocks.  Go cocks!  Appropriate for me huh?
At any rate, when I was in college, I was in the Carolina marching band.  But, I never really cared about sports or how a team was faring in their season.  Truth be told, throughout my college years, none of the teams did anything worth crowing about.
But, now, the gamecock football team is actually doing very well!  This past weekend, they beat Alabama, the number one ranked team in the country.
Why, after all these years, do I finally care?  Am I a fair weather fan...only caring and cheering when the team is winning?  Perhaps.
But, the way I look at it, I paid a whole lot of money in tuition fees to see a team choke time after time.  So, finally, I get to cheer the way I wanted to while I was in college.  I just wish I was still immature and Tiffany, Lil, Lisa, and my frat brothers were still around to party with me...ha ha.
Honestly, I never really cared about my college football team until this year.  So, if that makes me a fair weather fan, so be it.
All I can say at this time is....GO COCKS!  FIGHT!  WIN!!
