Yes, the degree to which I'm "loud and proud" about my tech fanhood during football season (by wearing gear) is dependent on how good the football team is doing. But me following/watching the team doesn't change regardless of record. If you call that bandwagonnery, go with it. Even flunkies are allowed to have opinions, no matter how retarded.
I think there is a difference between wearing less gear when we are losing and saying you are embarrassed to be seen wearing Tech gear. I agree almost everyone, including me, wears less gear and/or is less "into it" to some extent when we are not good. It's just not as exciting or fun when you're not winning.
But to say you're embarrassed to be seen wearing Tech gear? That's something I don't get, and the main reason you are catching flak from so many people. Have some pride in yourself and your team, even in tough times. There's no need to be embarrassed about your fandom.
