When it comes to sports, we all know Drake can be a bit of bandwagon fan. Being from Canada, Drake has pretty much zero ties to Alabama, however, it hasn't stopped him from showing his support for the Crimson Tide. His fandom became the subject of roasts as Alabama was blown out in the National Championship on Monday night by a score of 44-16 at the hands of the Clemson Tigers. It's pretty much a given at this point that whatever team Drake supports, they lose.

Now former Crimson Tide player Eryk Anders is weighing on Drake's fandom, saying he can never wear Alabama gear again, effectively giving him a lifetime ban from supporting the team. In comments made to TMZ, Anders continued saying "I really do got some heat for Drake right now."


Anders also took to Twitter the night of the loss saying he was "fighting him on sight" in regards to Drake although it was said in a more tongue in cheek sort of way. 

Maybe now that Drake's being called out for his bandwagoning ways, he'll think twice before supporting a team and bringing them inevitable bad luck.
