I have no issues with fans of teams using "us." Without "us" there is no "them."
"Us" and "We" belong to people legitimately associated with the organization. The Cubs are a "they" to me.

I'm really not all that militant about it, if people want to say "we" or "us" and that's how they roll I have no issues. As for me I always say "they" or "the Cubs". I'm not part of the team and that's just my preference. That all said if the Cubs win the World Series I might say "we" a few times. Hell I've been a fan for 47 years, if there's a World Series win I figure I owe myself a few days of celebratory "we's".

Given team history, I'll wait until they accomplish something before drinking the koolade. I'm glad they are having a good season though... future is bright.

I'm not really being militant about it. I might accidentally say it once in a while, too. My point was that I'm sure these teams don't want to play the Cubs, but they would have no problem playing against the forumites here (we) and kicking our ass. ;)

And that is fine. But there should be no issue with the use of US. The point stands that without US there is no THEM stands

That movie was fine. Are you part of the movie? That band was very enjoyable, but when they forgot to play one of the songs you liked did you tell your buddies that we forgot to put a song in our set list? "We" are a fan base. "They" are the entertainment. ;)

Not a valid analogy for me. The fans of sports can fuel the play of the athletes they support. No one is saying I made the homerun, touchdown, etc. That is your analogy. I don't believe it works at all.
