Miami Heat Fans Are “Sluts”
I really think it’s hysterical when a man thinks that the worst thing he can call a woman is a slut. I laugh it off because I know that the idiot probably has the IQ of a peanut (an insult still to the vegetable- I know).
When my Miami Heat won our glorious, thrilling, and amazing season, I didn’t notice it. No one sent me hateful messages- or maybe I was too busy reveling in the joy of pounding on my pots and pans to see it. I even made a new Spurs friend on Twitter.
@Sarkist Your team is amazing and strong. This series was a privilege to watch. Standing ovation! #Spurs

I’m not the type of person to spread hate. I close every video I make with live long and prosper; no truer geek greeting if there was one. However, my positivity does not mean the whole world was raised with sunshine and good parenting.
It wasn’t until a few weeks after the Heat championship that a negative tweet rolled in. The best part is it wasn’t from a San Antonio fan (that town is way too classy for hate). It was a Los Angeles Laker fan- which in all fairness- made complete sense.
@SarahRamsingh lol that ish is getting old sloot

Am I shocked that none of my guy friends (that I know of) received nasty comments on Twitter? Not really. It’s a thousand times easier to hate on a girl. I even had to google what ‘sloot’ meant because I wasn’t raised in the gutter. I initially responded nicely to him because I had no idea this internet big shot with 8 followers was calling me a slut.
Then when I went down to the Florida SuperCon, a friend of a friend proudly announced how Knicks fans, (him being a NY fan himself, though not sure if he was in the name calling) were calling female Heat fans sluts. How a grown man could be proud of this kind of behavior again was beyond me.
Listen, first and foremost, it’s always hysterical when a dynasty loses. So, of course I tweet funny things when the Celtics, Lakers, Yankees, or Knicks crumble. Why? Because these titans are use to glory and the money that buys it. I am a proud Miami girl. I love all Miami teams and am a University of Miami alumni. They only dynasty team Miami has ever had is the Miami Hurricanes. I am thrilled that the Heat is properly restoring our dynasty crown (my next prayer is for the Dolphins; I have faith in the Canes).
I wasn’t going to write about this or even make a video (oh, it’s coming) – but I am choosing to address it because when some loser out there with his loser team is choosing to throw hate at female Miami Heat fans, he needs to shamed. Shamed the same way he is trying to shame a woman. And girls need to know to stand strong and not let these fools run you off the internet.
If you think you’re representing your team and your city by calling a Miami Heat fan a slut- you’re not. You’re PATHETIC. You’re a LOSER. You’re SAD. And we female Miami Heat fans are still CHAMPIONS.
