Chandler Parsons called bandwagoner, forced to defend his Cowboys fandom on Twitter
Chandler Parsons signed with the Dallas Mavericks this offseason after three seasons with the Houston Rockets.
After the Cowboys 24-20 win over the Lions in the first round of the playoffs Sunday, Parsons tweeted a celebratory tweet.
“@Mahmoud_Ajj1407: @ChandlerParsons who's your favorite NFL team?” Texans!!!

“@TexansLover456: @ChandlerParsons Do you like the Texans?” Love them. @ArianFoster is a beast!

Well, it didn't take long for Twitter users to call him out for abandoning the Texans.
Parsons was forced to defend cheering for his new team by saying it's where he makes a living.
Twitter wasn't having it.
I support where I live and make a living. #clowns #wedemboysss

So, is Chandler Parsons a bandwagoner? Or is he just smart for rooting for his local team?
“@ChandlerParsons: I support where I live and make a living. #clowns #wedemboysss” bandwagon

But it does make us wonder: Who does he cheer for if he gets traded to a city without an NFL team?
