When will you stop supporting Juve? (6 Viewers)

I mostly have lost interest on football, but I still have to watch Juve games (and a few Serie A and CL games).
I don't think I could have interest in a club/person and not pay attention to the rest of the sport in at least a little detail. I'm always making comparisons to Juventus whenever I watch other teams play, and looking at what their players would add when I'm being realistic.

Why have you lost interest in football though?

I don't know why I started and I don't know why I stopped. It's something you can try to pin down in time, but you never know the reasons for it.
I still think it wouldn't have happened if we had a winning team. I don't think you'd lose your interest just like that. But maybe, it's what I think.

Exactly, it's a question people never asked themselves before. So therefore I ask them.
It's how you respond without thinking much and that's nothing wrong it. So what if it's Juve forever? I don't get it. You'll always support it, so? You don't have to be Nostredame to say that.

    Probably not. But you never know.

    But you won't always support it. Apparently it makes people feel good to say this, but it's not true.

    I've not lost complete interest. But compared to 4 Serie A games, a few Liga and EPL games and all the CL games I could, now I watch at most 3 Serie A and the big CL games. I don't why though. I think it happened after Calciopoli, where I got angry at the footballing world and don't care abut good football anymore and just want Juve to win and everyone else to lose.

    I don't know, but people lose interest. Do you listen to the same music all your life? Do you love the same books? Do you maintain any sort of cultural interest that never changes?

    Maybe some people do, but most don't.

    And you don't know that as well. There's no proof that reincarnation doesn't exist.
    Same thing. But don't you see, when people say that they will forever they're being just as silly as if they said "I will stop in 2012". So why are you confronting me and not them?

    What if someone said "I will use Colgate to brush my teeth the rest of my life"? Would you have said anything to such a person? What if Colgate goes bankrupt?

    I see what you mean and I can understand it. It's not a must - the only must is to die.

    Don't a lot people really support their clubs til they die, literally?
    Doubt it. I almost never meet anyone around that age who gives a damn about sports. There's a hell of a lot more people in their teens who care about sports than old people.

    Because it's more logical to say " I will always support them " than " I will stop once they go bankrupt"?

    Why do people say "I'll always love you"? You're being short sighted.

    I love football in general and tend to go to alot of premier league matches during the course of the season. I tend to travel to Turin too to watch the boys and especially when they come over to the UK im always ready no matter who they play. I'll never stop supporting them but im so angry inside how were being run these days makes it worse with the old memories i have of the not so long ago past and the feeling which im sure one day will return. Calciopoli has ruined us but for how long we cant say. Forza Juve! So in the mean time im gonna be routing on Inter till you decide to come back and become a force you once was.

    Why is that logical? It's a very poor estimate of one's own behavior. Do people say "I will always be healthy"? Isn't that just as "logical"?

    Why do people say "I'll always love you"? You're being short sighted.
    Yes, but the motivations are different, because you're talking to the person in question. It's better to use the example "I will always love her" said to someone else.
