The Interference Sports Allegiance Thread

[GirlsAloudFan]

Can I mention if I seriously follow two football teams, or do I have to pick a side?

For some reason I thought you were a Packers fan. Or am I thinking of something completely different?

I am, but I follow the Colts *almost* as closely

 

[bono_212]

Oh, didn't notice PFan's ok:

MLB: Chicago Cubs
NFL: Green Bay Packers, Indianapolis Colts
NCAA (Baseball and Football): uh...does TCU count? I do follow them, not just cause I go here.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Here's me (I dig this thread by the way):

MLB - Chicago White Sox
NFL - Chicago Bears
NBA - Chicago Bulls
NHL - Chicago Blackhawks
NCAA - University of Illinois

Those are my diehards.

And because my brother is a fan of them, I casually root for the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA and the UCLA Bruins in NCAA sports.

 

[bono_212]

Someday, I am going to seriously start following Hockey, then I will be a Blackhawks fan, and whenever I get around to soccer, Chicago Fire.

If you want to, go ahead. I'm actually surprised that Pryck made no mention of the Mets.

Social conditioning. Its a game!

 

[RedRocksU2]

what's this thing called "Hockey"?

 

[BoMac]

No offense to anyone who's posted in this thread, but for the life of me I cannot understand how someone can root for two teams. I mean, pick a team and cheer for them.

If the NFL decided to come to Montreal, for example, I wouldn't stop supporting the 'Niners just because there's a team here.

 

[Screwtape2]

NFL Football: Indianapolis Colts
MLB Baseball: Seattle Mariners
NCAA Football: Iowa Hawkeyes
NCAA Baseball: Creighton Bluejays, Miami Hurricanes if Creighton is out of it
NCAA Basketball: Creighton Bluejays
NCAA Volleyball: Nebraska Cornhuskers
Women's Tennis: Jankovic

Well, as I've stated in the past, I'm a Yankee fan first, but I also root for the Mets.

Eh, I don't know, I guess I don't find it so hard since the teams are in two different leagues. They rarely, if ever, play each other, so I've never had a conflict in liking both of them occur. I do like Green Bay a great deal more than the Colts, but I like the Colts a great deal.

 

[Doozer61]

NFL - Buffalo Bills
MLB - Angels
NHL - The Ducks
NCAA Football - University of Oregon Ducks

Oh I forgot to add my Hockey team!

Hockey: Chicago Wolves

 

[shari schultz]

NFL - Packers
MLB - Brewers
NCAA - WI Badgers

 

[No spoken words]

MLB: NY Yankees
NFL: Steelers, but strong affinity for the Giants, too, despite BoMac's protestations. Clearly, though, Steelers are my favorites.
NHL: Islanders
NBA: 76'ers
College Football: Michigan
College Basketball: Virginia, St. John's

 

[phillyfan26]

Hey NSW, why do you put an apostrophe in 76ers?

I understand what you're saying, and I respect it, I just don't understand it.

Again, no protestation, I just don't understand it.

Hey NSW, why do you put an apostrophe in 76ers?

I'm not really sure, actually.

I'm not really sure, actually.

You mean there's not? My world just shattered a bit.
