No way I could be indifferent to the NFL.

I'd love to see this place if the Saints for some reason moved to AL.

Between bad ownership and GM moves, I barely know who the Titans are these days so I'd have to say no. With the exception of him playing against TN I always rooted for Mac, Eddie too.

No. I'd probably abandon that sport altogether.

Maybe until a new team comes to my city

If the Texans left Houston I'd give up on the NFL.
It was bad losing the Oilers and I still to this day hate Bud Adams and was actually happy when he died. The fact that a sport made me feel such strong dislike for someone that I could feel happy that they died is kinda sick.
If the Rockets left town I'd probably follow them and pull for them until the roster fully changed and the players that I pull for now were no longer on the team.
If the Astros left town I'm not sure I'd notice. I pay for the top tier of programming with Dish Network and get the optional sport package but I can't watch a single Astros game all season long. I hate American League baseball, I don't care about the Rangers, A's, Angels, or Mariners. I'm pretty close to giving up on baseball anyway, so losing the team would just kinda seal the deal.

Yes to the Saints; maybe/I don't know yet for the Pelicans.
I'm also a Braves and Red Wings fan and I couldn't care less what city they represent. I'll stick with them.

If the Braves moved to Charlotte or Nashville I'd still root for them.
If they moved out of the South I wouldn't

I cheered for the Titans until we got the Texans.

I still supported the Hornets in OKC even though they insulted the fanbase by referring to them as "Your Home Team Hornets".

That is different though because the team was ultimately coming back to NOLA.

I thinks the decision is easier if you are a fan of a team that isn't stationed at a place you have allegiance to. I like the Penguins but have no allegiance to Pittsburgh so if they moved I wouldn't care. If the Saints/Pelicans left I don't know where my attention would go but I doubt I would support them the same.
Posted on 5/24/14 at 11:32 pm to JabarkusRussell
No. The only reason I cheer for Atlanta is because they're the only teams I get on TV. When I move later this Summer, I'll begin cheering for the Pittsburgh teams

You didn't read that email Shinn had about keeping them there?

There is only one NBA and NFL team that is in the NW. Thank God that Paul Allen is the owner because I would lose interest in the NBA if the blazers moved.

He was a grade A prick aside from moving the team too

Nope.
Pelicans I would hate for leaving me.
Bills....they are buffalo. The amount of support the city gives them should never be underestimated. Leaving Buffalo would only happen for greed reasons and I couldn't support a team that would shite on a loyal fan base. esp. a fan base that keeps going after 14 years of no playoffs and only 2 .500 seasons during that stretch. I would watch football but only with a passing interest.
Sabres...same as above
Cubs...Couldn't imagine them ever leaving and I would prob. stop watching mlb
