Wanted to make a thread where posters can come and display the teams the root for and why. Now, obviously most root for their hometown or home state teams, but there some like me who do not have such ties but still root for those teams.

Seeing that there are multiple sports and leagues. How much sports do you follow? And which is your favorite? You can rank em if you like.

For me...

NBA = College Football > NFL > MLB > College Basketball

NBA - Chicago Bulls:
Being born and raised mostly in the bay area. Everybody was a Jordan fan in the 90's. Golden State was cool and I think those 90's unis are some of the best, but I just didn't care because watching Jordan was and still is the greatest thing I have ever seen from an athlete. You wanna talk about being a stan, I once put the beats on a kid in 5th grade because he called black jesus a stupid 'n word'. Now im gonna be real, me and the kid i whooped are both white. If he had said it about another black athlete like Ken Griffey who i was a huge fan of too, I would've just looked at him crazy and prolly tell em don't say stupid shyt like that. I could tell that kid came from a fukked up home cuz that dude would always do stupid shyt like grab toads, put em in a plastic bag, and fling it in the air for fun. He's probably in some policy academy by now with his :demonic:ways. But when he said that, it was like he was calling my mom a slut or whore and my fist balled up instinctively and i started whaling on him. Even when Jordan retired, I still stuck to the bulls. All of my friends back home went back to rooting for golden state, but Im the type of person who stays loyal.

College Football - THEE Ohio State Buckeyes:
Started in '97 when i played pop warner. My coach was from Ohio and a die hard fan. Even our pop warner uniforms was ohio st replicas. I just remembered watching tv with my dad and he was watching the rose bowl ohio st vs arizona st. I saw on tv and was like :ohhh:that's our uniform. Ever since then I followed them closely and college football in general. '03 national championship is still the best for me. I didn't think we could beat miami. I still think the pass interference was bullshyt, but ill take it:manny:. I guess karma caught us back when we got our asses whooped by florida and lsu in the chip in 07 and 08 :mjcry:. I feel so unworthy because I counted this years team out after va tech. Im never gonna sleep on em again.

MLB: Oakland A's

Teams I hate: Meshegin, NY Knicks, Roger Goodell :pacspit::pacspit::pacspit:

MLB - Yankees, Royals, Pirates
NFL - Miami Dolphins...but also Jets and Giants since I live in NY.
NHL - Rangers
NBA - Spurs, and Knicks..again because I live in NY. I did kinda start liking the Lakers but only because a lot of the bandwagon fans fell off once they started losing.
College basketball - Nobody really. I was a big Arizona fan back in the 1990s.
College football - Nobody really. Probably The U (Miami). I hate the Florida Gators and Ohio State. Also screw the Texas Longhorns. Part of me liked Mississippi after I read The Meat Market by Bruce Feldman.

Good stuff but, how can you root for more than one team? I can understand if you're a fan of the sport in general, but I could never have multiple teams in the same league.

Yeah it doesn't really make sense to root for the Dolphins and Jets given that they are rivals...but if they aren't playing each other I kinda like to see each team do well.

I'm a Yankees fan first, but I'm so critical of the team and I really hate their moves lately so I find myself rooting for smaller, lesser teams to do well. But I've been following the Royals and Pirates farm system for like 7 years now so I was happy to see their players coming through at the big league level.

so you're really big on mlb? haven't cared that much for baseball since the phillies won in '08. the a's are my team, but its basically just a homer pick. but i was a huge baseball geek in middle through high school. this was during the steroid era and everybody was jacking up homers but thats not what caught my attention. i fukking loved watching pitchers. guys from maddux to randy johnson, david cone, kevin brown. seeing a pitcher in the zone is really something. i just stopped caring the last 6 years.

Well honestly I follow sports less and less these days.

I pay attention here and there but not like I used to.
I don't think I've watched a full game from beginning to end (without changing channels or walking away from the tv) in a few years now.

Optimistic But I Got Hands Tho
Cavs, Browns, Indians.

I support all Ohio colleges.

Ohio Against The World :salute:

I do have a soft spot for the Pittsburgh Penguins. Used to watch them a lot in person when I lived out there.

I don't hate any teams but my ex was huge Lakers, Steelers, and Michigan fan. Should've known it was never going to work with her. :heh:

I must say whatever feelings I had towards Michigan are dying...hope this rivalry makes it back to the top. :to:
