Hawkeye-ing

The hypocritical call for action toward a team or entity that one has no affiliation with. Many times, this can refer to the firing or “cleaning house” or an otherwise moderately successful coaching staff.

Jim: Wow, those fans are calling for that coaches head after that beat down.

Mark: Yes, this is classic Hawkeye-ing. They don’t even have a reason to care, but they feign outrage to put up the facade, like they actually have a clue what’s going on.

Jim: Man…..those people must be insufferable personally.

Hawkeye-ing

Being a fan of a sport team without any real affiliation or connection to said team.

Fan: WOOO GO HAWKS!

Jim: Why is that fan such a big fan of the Hawks? He didn’t even go to that school. As a matter of fact, he dropped out of community college.

Mark: Meh, he’s hawkeye-ing. You expect garbage to smell, right?
