you may feel proud but proud is not good for your health...!

It's okay. It's not a preexisting condition.

It's a pet peeve of mine that people are proud of that which they had no part in creating.

One is reasonably proud of his accomplishments, and proud of his children (although it starts to stretch things to be proud of their accomplishments.)

"Black pride" is understandable, I suppose, as an antidote to the black shame which was propagated for decades.

But pride in an organization of athletic entertainers?   Should fans of Penn State football be ashamed for raping little boys? A fan is no more a Washington Redskin than they are Marcus Welby, M.D.

Can I be proud to be Irish?
