Ring culture 

A belief that success in sports can only be measured by championships (members of championship teams are typically awarded rings, which is where the term comes from).

In a season where a team does not win a championship, those who believe in ring culture identify said season as a failure, regardless of how close to a championship said team was.
Fan 1: "I can't believe my team just lost the Super Bowl. I'm not wearing any of my Super Bowl gear ever again. This year was horrible!"
Fan 2: "Ring culture is ruining the experience as fans. Just be happy that your team made it to the biggest stage."

Puberty ball 

A baseball fan who tries to secure a catch of a home run/foul ball, but drops it.

(in reference to a male's testicles dropping as they undergo puberty)
The dude in the stands who tried catching Judge's home run ended up with a puberty ball.

choke artists

A sports team who consistently chokes, regardless of how well they're playing.
The Mets and the Dodgers are prime examples of choke artists-- they may play as well as they could in the regular season, but ultimately blow their chances at a championship.
A sports team that is significantly better than most other teams in their respective league, but fall short of being the best.

In a direct matchup against the best team, they are the underdog.
